Factors associated with discharging of cargoes, and possible means whereby discharge time cycles might be reduced by recognizing vital influence of suction lines, using cargo pumps as high capacity stripping pumps, and by automating discharging of tankers; concern is more with supertanker (60,000 to 120,000, or perhaps ultimately greater, tons dw) than with medium and small vessel. From paper before Soc Naval Architects and Mar Engrs.
