70% to pass

An offshore drilling unit must have enough inflatable liferafts to accommodate at least what percentage of the persons allowed?

A 20%
B 30%
C 50%
D 100%
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) 100%. According to the U.S. Coast Guard regulations, an offshore drilling unit must have enough inflatable liferafts to accommodate 100% of the persons allowed on board. This requirement ensures that in the event of an emergency, there are enough liferaft spaces available to evacuate the entire crew and personnel. The other answer choices (A, B, and C) are incorrect because they do not meet the regulatory requirement of 100% liferaft capacity for offshore drilling units.
