How many fireman's outfits are required on a MODU?

A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 2 fireman's outfits are required on a MODU (Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit). This requirement is specified in 46 CFR 109.213, which states that every MODU must carry at least two fireman's outfits. The regulation ensures that there are enough properly equipped personnel available to respond to a fire emergency on the MODU. The other answer choices are incorrect because 1 fireman's outfit (A) would be insufficient, and 3 (C) or 4 (D) would exceed the minimum requirement stated in the regulations.
