AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Use portable washing machines to reach areas obscured by structural members in the tanks. This is not a requirement for the safe and effective use of a crude oil washing system. The key requirements are using an inert gas system while washing tanks (option C) and stripping all tanks and removing the bottom residue (option D). Portable washing machines are not necessary, as the crude oil washing system is designed to reach all areas of the tanks, including those obscured by structural members. Options B and C are correct requirements for the safe and effective use of a crude oil washing system.
