That picture looks more appropriate for the Empress Marava or the Beowulf, that's certain, except the Empress would have a lift in that corner or a fresher, and a Beowulf would have more doors. The Classic and T5 style of deck plans for the Suleiman has a small common area that would fit this picture.

"The Animal’s power needs, greater than the other two vessels"
and
"The Empress Marava’s power plant resembles the Animal’s, despite its much lower power demands."
But... while the Animal has 105 power points and the Empress Marava only 90, the actual requirements are the same for basic, m-drive and j-drive (100 total), but the additional draws on the Animal add up to 4 - so without weapons it has 1 to spare, while the Empress Marava requires another 23 (of which 18 are weapons) so it's sort of the opposite - it's the Empress Marava that has more demands (and a clear deficiency) but the Animal's plant is larger... so those two statements are basically not correct.

DISPLACEMENT TON: A measurement of volume equal
to one metric ton of liquid hydrogen, roughly 13.5
cubic metres. When discussing spacecraft, ‘ton’ – if
not specified or otherwise obvious from context – most
often refers to a displacement ton.
This is incorrect for Mongoose Traveller.
The Mongoose Traveller core rule book and High Guard use the more correct 14 cubic metre definition of the displacement ton.
crb update 2022 page 149
The size of a ship, its components and cargo is
measured in displacement tons or simply tons. A
displacement ton displaces a volume equal to one ton
of liquid hydrogen. One displacement ton is roughly
equal to 14 cubic metres.
High Guard update 2022 page 5
Ships are measured in ‘displacement tons’ or d-tons:
a 100-ton ship displaces a volume equal to one 100
tons of liquid hydrogen (one d-ton equals roughly 14
cubic metres).
For the sake of consistency change it from 13.5 to 14.

I was going to make a quip about pi being 'about four' by legislative fiat, but after 3.14 minutes of research, all I found is:
Indiana pi bill - Wikipedia
But okay, let's call it 14, even if it should really be closer to 14.1. (um, the displacement ton, not pi)
