I think there is a minor fault in your report. Chief engineer should be chief officer, as he is responsible for the distribution of the weight (cargo and ballastwater). This is a typical bridge job. Besides that, his coverall is marked with “C/O”.
It’s always good to see some office guys who go to sea and experience how life is over there.
