The SS AMERICAN MARINER is loaded with the cargo shown in table ST-0058 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the amount of liquid loading required in the double bottom tanks to meet a one compartment standard.

Analyzing cargo stowage data from table ST-0058 provides the baseline for intact stability and floodable length calculations. Entering the stability tables dictates that 990 tons of liquid loading within the double bottom tanks is mandatory to maintain compliance with one-compartment standards.
