fuil oil on board and stcps you will initiatc for ordering of optimum quantity of oil requiremont
for the on coming voyage.
6. Your vessel was bunkering at a port wherc you are posted as Chicf Bngrncer. Describe the
procedure you would employ for ascertaining/receiving colrect grade/quantity of oil from the
shore supply authorities. In case of a dispute over lube oiUfirel oil reccivcd on board, describc the
actions you will take under ckcumstances.
7. You hive joined I
vessel, which is due for a long voyage. As a Chief Engineer describc the
methodology/ maintenance programme you would employ during the voyage for the stored oii in
the tank. What tests will indicate that stored oil is in good health?
8. The ship on which you are working as Chief Engineer has run aground and some of the double
bottom tanks are suspected to bc leaky with oil going out. Describe the methods employed by you
in the situation for oil stock management and ascertaining the quantity of available oil.
9" Describe the methodology you will practice during taking over/handing over of your vessel in a
foreign port as a Chief Engineer towards inventory management of lube oil/fuel oil on board. In
casc of disputc arising thereof, describe how it can be best solved? During thc circumstances how
you would ascerfain amount of oil not fit for use?.
Describe the objective for maintaining records onboard. What are its categories? Enlist the record
keeping items under each categories substantiating with reasons. Give an eximple by which the
'records generated by the shipboard maintenance activities may also be seen as a data base frorn
which valuable management information can be rerieved.
11. Wjth reference to record keeping onboard, discuss (i) the necessity of proper filing (ii) efficient
- control of followup and verification activities (iii) accident investigation.
Describe a situation onboard; which will highlight the importancb of record keeping of above three
cases.

L2. How to distinguish between necessary and unnetessary records on ship? How the control of recprd
keeping rnaintained onboard? How the old and unnecessary records are identified and dealt with?
