The DEEP DRILLER is loaded as shown in Sample Load Form #4 (Drilling). What would be the new sum of transverse moments for the Stores & Supplies (Table 6) if paint weighing 3.48 tons is added to the paint locker?

Correct Answer: Option D — 000 foot-tons

Adding weight directly on the vessel's centerline (such as in the centerline paint locker) introduces zero transverse moment arm distance, resulting in an added transverse moment of 000 foot-tons.
