Getting to Know the Ship - The Engine Room
Read the dialogue and understand it in every detail.
1/Eng: Here's your new workplace, The Persian Adventure's Engine Room.
Santos: Oh, the engine is huge! The room is bigger, brighter, and quieter than I thought.
1/Eng: It isn't very noisy at port, but it becomes quite noisy at sea. So be sure to wear earplugs when you work in here. It is important to keep the lighting equipment well maintained for safety reasons. Since you are in charge of electricity, you are also responsible for the safety of the workplace.
Santos: My job seems challenging and I'm excited. By the way, did you change the main engine fuel oil from heavy fuel oil to diesel oil before entering port?
1/Eng: We used to do that, but FO valves have improved recently. We can now use heavy fuel oil even while in port. Remember to always keep the FO pump working.
Santos: Where are the cargo pumps? I don't see them.
1/Eng: For safety reasons, they are in the Pump Room in another section. All lights in the Pump Room are gas tight.
Santos: How do you switch pumps?
1/Eng: We use the No. 1 Group when outbound, and the No. 2 Group when inbound. We switch pumps while warming up the engine before we leave port. Santos: Do the two diesel generators run the same way?
1/Eng: The Second Engineer, who is in charge of the diesel generators, adjusts their operating times according to his work plan.
Santos: Does the maintenance plan apply to the main engine and to all of the important auxiliary machines such as the generators, the air compressors, and the boilers?
1/Eng: You got it! Proper maintenance is essential for safe and economical navigation.

Getting to Know the Ship - The Engine Control Room
Read the dialogue and understand it in every detail.
1/Eng: Let me briefly show you the Control Room equipment. This ship is a so-called MO ship. The main engine can be operated from three places: the Bridge, here in the Control Room, and locally.
Santos: What situations require the main engine to be operated from the Bridge or locally?
1/Eng: We usually operate the main engine from the Bridge while at sea. We have to operate locally when the remote-control system breaks down. But special skills are required for that. We check and practice local operation before entering and leaving port. Will you be training soon?
Santos: Yes, but I'm not sure about the schedule.
1/Eng: The main engine is a Hitachi B&W 8S80MCE. Its CSO is 18,071 kilowatts at 69.7 RPMs. The diameter of the cylinders is 800 mm, and the piston stroke is 2,592 mm.
Santos: That's huge! A cylinder is big enough for an adult to work inside it.
1/Eng: Exactly. We can go and see a cylinder when we are changing an exhaust valve.
Santos: I'll look forward to that.
1/Eng: The main engine and most auxiliary machines are operated and turned on and off here in the Control Room. We can check their condition, too.
Santos: Do you mean that no one needs to stay in the Engine Room?
1/Eng: Not exactly. As I said before, we use the MO system so we don't need to check it while at sea. All of the Engine Room crewmembers engage in maintenance work. An engineer and an oiler assigned to an MO watch have to check and maintain the main engine and the equipment in the Engine Room. Whenever the MO alarm rings, they have to respond to it.
