1.A ship is at the light displacement of 3000 tonnes and has KG 5.

5 m, and
KM 7.0 m. The following weights are then loaded:
5000 tonnes of cargo KG 5 m 2000
tonnes of cargo KG 10 m
700 tonnes of fuel oil of relative density 0.96.
The fuel oil is taken into Nos. 2, 3 and 5 double bottom tanks, filling Nos. 3
and 5, and leaving No. 2 slack.
The ship then sails on a 20-day passage consuming 30 tonnes of fuel oil per
day. On arrival at her destination Nos. 2 and 3 tanks are empty, and the
remaining fuel oil is in No. 5 tank. Find the ship’s GM’s for the departure and
arrival conditions.

Dimensions of the tanks:


No. 2 15 × 15 m × 1m
No. 3 22 m × 15 m × 1m
No. 5 12 m × 15 m × 1m
Assume that the KM is constant and that the KG of the fuel oil in every case
is half of the depth of the tank.

Ans: . Dep. GM is 0.842 m, arr. GM is 0.587 m


2.A ship of 9900 tonnes displacement has KM = 7.3 m and KG = 6.4 m. She
has yet to load two 50 tonne lifts with her own gear and the first lift is to be
placed on deck on the inshore side (KG 9 m and centre of gravity 6 m out
from the centreline). When the derrick plumbs the quay its head is 15 m
above the keel and 12 m out from the centreline. Calculate the maximum list
during the operation.
Ans. Maximum List = 6° 6'
3. A ship is partly loaded and has a displacement of 9000 tonnes, KG 6 m, and
KM 7.3 m. She is to make a 19-day passage consuming 26 tonnes of oil per day
(KG 0.5 m). Find how much deck cargo she may load (KG 10 m) if the GM on
arrival at the destination is to be not less than 0.3 m.

Ans: 1929.67 tonnes
