    Scuppers and drainage systems on ships carrying vehicles with fuel tanks need special consideration to prevent build-up of free liquid surfaces and potential impacts on stability. Drainage from vehicle cargo spaces must be arranged to avoid pooling water which could shift and affect the ship's balance. Scuppers from these areas cannot drain into machinery spaces or other locations with ignition sources, to reduce fire risks from any leaked fuel.
