Ship bilges are the lowest compartments within a ship's hull where water, oil, and other liquids accumulate. They serve as collection areas for unwanted water that can enter the vessel from various sources, such as leaks or rain. Proper management of bilges is crucial for maintaining stability and preventing environmental pollution, as bilge water often contains harmful substances. Regular pumping and treatment of bilge water are important for safe and efficient ship operations.
