138. What is a major initial ramification of receiving bunkers with a water content of 0.75% by volume?

Loss of specific heating value of fuel's thus effecting fuel consumption and engine efficiency, as well as an economic loss.
All water may be dealt with by proper use of centrifuges, thus not a significant onboard or economic/engineering problem.
Economic loss of receiving less fuel, by volume, but still within ISO 8217:2010 fuel specifications.
Vessel will have to use additional efforts to reduce the water content, the oily-water separators can deal with the discharge waste water.
