What is sounding?
|
As discussed earlier, sounding is the process for calculating the total quantity of fluid (oil, bilge, sludge, or water) inside a ship’s tank. First the depth of the fluid from the surface to the bottom of the tank is derived corresponding to which volumetric quantity is calculated using the sounding table.

What is sounding table?
|
Sounding table is a chart describing the construction, capacity and most importantly the volumetric content of the tank at given depth of sounding or ullage. All vessels have there own sounding table documents for each tank containing fluid in bulk. We will now have a look at the different types of sounding methods used on a ship. Methods for taking sounding on a ship.

In this method, a sounding tape is used with a heavy weight bob attached to one end of the tape using a strap hook. It is the most commonly used methods used for calculation of tank capacity. If the capacity inside a tank is more, free space of the tank is measured to calculate total capacity of the tank. This method is called ullage measurement.
