70% to passHow many fire extinguishers, and what type, are required on an unmanned oil barge during transfer operations, if the barge has no cargo pumps aboard?
A
Two B-II
B
One B-V
C
One B-II
D
Two A-II
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) One B-II. According to the regulations, an unmanned oil barge during transfer operations, if the barge has no cargo pumps aboard, is required to have one B-II fire extinguisher. This is specified in 46 CFR 39.10-5(a), which states that unmanned barges without cargo pumps must have at least one B-II fire extinguisher on board during transfer operations. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the regulatory requirement. Option A) Two B-II is too many, option B) One B-V is the wrong type, and option D) Two A-II is also the wrong type.
