I. INTRODUCTION
A ship is certainly equipped with various tanks for fluid storage, either
necessary or waste products such as fresh water tanks and slop tanks. Each tank has
a different function and in some tanks there are rules to be isolated from the other
tanks. Location tank arranged by class and tank dimensions adjusted to the needs of
the ship.
Tanks are generally located in double bottom. These tanks including fuel,
lubricating oil, ballast water, fresh water, and waste tank. The capacity must be
suitable with needs during the voyage. Placement of the tank could be placed in the
front engine room bulkhead (double bottom under the load space). Usually in a tanker
placing fuel oil and slop tank in front of engine room. Waterproof cofferdam is needed
between the fuel tank and the fresh water tank. Exactly pump room in tanker. It aims
to anticipate if there is a leak in one of the tanks, the fluid is not mixed. After all we
can calculation of the volume of each tank is adjusted to the number of tank capacity
requirements that have been calculated. Thus we can determine volume of payloads
are available.

II. OBJECTIVES

V. CHAPTER DESCRIPTION
This document explain how to calculate any volume tank capacity and payload,
so need to know what is LWT, DWT, and cargo hold or payload.
A. Lightweight
Lightweight is the actual weight of the ship which is measure based on whatever
weight that cannot be moved from ship including construction, machinery and
outfitting.
B. Deadweight
Deadweight is the weight of ship which is measure based on whatever weight that
can be moved from ship. Could be calculate by loaded condition minus the
lightship weight. It includes the crew, passengers, cargo, fuel, water, and stores.
Like displacement, it is often expressed in long tons or in metric tons.
C. Cargo Hold
Cargo hold is space of ship for storing cargo or payload. It requires different
plotting in different ship type and cargo type.

VIII. DETAIL CALCULATION
1. Calculating of Ship's LWT
a. Steel Weight (Wst)
Weight calculation of steel is based on formula by J.M. Murray (1964) (Ship
Design and Performance for Masters and Mates, C.B. Barrass) :

Wst = LPP x B x H x Cbd x C1

Cbd = 0.692
B = 22 m
LPP = 130.39 m
H = 11.25 m
T = 8.24 m
Cb = 0.623

Wst = 2366,7 ton

b. Outfit Weight Calculation (Wo)

The calculation of the Weight of Outfit and Accommodation can be done
using the formula:
WOa = K x Lpp x B

K Container = 0.36

WOa = 0.36 x Lpp x B

= 1032.6888 ton

c. Machinery Installation Weight

For calculation of machinery installation weight, Two Group Method from
"Practical Ship Design" by DGM Watson.T the machinery weight divided into
two components: propulsion machinery and remainder. The propulsion
machinery is the weight of main engine taken from catalogue or project guide.
Wme = Weight of Main Engine
= 140 ton

MCR = Main engine maximum continous power rate

= 10800 kW
K = Coefficient
= 0.69 for bulk carrier

Wre = Weight of remainder

= K x MCR0.7
= 459.458 ton

d. Weight Reserves (WRes)

To avoid mistakes in planning due to unsuitable estimates in terms of
calcualtions and previous things that have not been included in the
consideration, it is necessary to add factor of 2-3% LWT taken rate of addition
of 0.03.
WRes = 3% (Wst+Wo+Wme+Wre)
= 115,77 ton

LWT = Wst+Wo+Wme+Wmt+Wres
= 3974,6 ton

2. Calculating of Ship's DWT

DWT = Weight Displacement - LWT
W Disp. = Weight of displacement
= 15.108,787 ton
LWT = Ship Lightweight
= 4058,38 ton

DWT = 11050,41 Ton

3. Fuel Oil Tank

Because MDO is also used for Main Engine and for Auxiliary engines, there
is addition in calculating the weight of diesel oil used to ensure that MDO needs
are sufficient for the main engine and auxiliary engine. As calculated from
document No. 2 – 04211940000125 – GT need 964,672 m3 HFO capacity.

6. Ballast Water Tank

Ballast water tank is used when ship is not carrying cargo, or in some
addition to fix ship stability. According to the planning, the ballast water volume is
13.5% of ship's displacement.
Volume of Ballast = 13.5% x V Disp.
= 1989,938 m3
Spare Volume of Ballast = 104% x V Ballast
= 2069,54 m3

Weight Provision = 3.5 - 5 kg person/ day and taken (C) = 5 kg

The weight consists of 2 Kg of clothing and 3 Kg of food.
Wprov = C x n x endurance x (1/24) x 10-3
= 0,97 ton
Number of Crew (n) = 21 Person
Wcrew = Worg x n x 10-3 (Average weight of person=85 Kg)
= 1,575 tons

W total = WHFO + WMDO + WLO + WFW + WPROV + WCREW

W total = 587.037 + 88.056 + 3.591 + + 0.97 + 1.575
W total = 880.455 ton

B. Estimation of Cargo Hold Capacity

Payload = DWT – Wtotal
Payload = 11054.69 ton – 874.66 ton
Payload = 10034.58 ton
Payload = 10180.3 ton / 12 = 836 TEU’S

9. Waste Tank (Sludge, Bilge Holding Tank, and Sewage)

a. Sludge Tank
Based on MARPOL Annex I, for ships which do not carry ballast
water in oil fuel tanks, the minimum sludge tank capacity should be
calculated by the following formula (Regulation 10) :
K1 = 0.015 for ships using HFO
C = daily fuel oil consumption (m3)
D = period of voyage where sludge can be discharge (days)
V sludge tank = K1CD
= 0.015 x 72.51 x 9
= 9.79 m3

Bilge holding tank is tank that fluid come from bilge system and
any amount of fluid which is exiles from other tank. Volume of this tank is
influenced by power of engine. According to IMO, bilge holding tank is
determined by P/250 for engine power between 1000 kW and 20.000 kW.
Volume of bilge holding tank = 10800 kW
= 43.2 m3

c. Sewage Tank
Based on MARPOL Annex IV and ClassNK Technical Information No. TEC
0545, the minimum capacity of Sewage Tank is:
Volume = C × A1 × E
Whereas:
C = Total Crew
A1 = Sewage factor per person
E = Endurance from port to port
So, the sewage volume is:
V = C × A1 × Endurance
V = 21 × 0.06 × 9
V = 11.34 m3
