70% to pass

The immersion suit requirements for MODU's apply to units operating in the Atlantic Ocean above _______________.

A 20°North and below 20°South
B 25°North and below 25°South
C 30°North and below 30°South
D 32°North and below 32°South
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) 32°North and below 32°South. The immersion suit requirements for Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs) operating in the Atlantic Ocean apply to units operating north of 32°N and south of 32°S. This is specified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 108.495, which mandates the use of immersion suits for all personnel on MODUs operating in these designated areas. The other answer choices are incorrect because they either cover a broader or narrower geographical area than the 32°N and 32°S requirement specified in the regulations.
