Question 3425 Deck General

The correct answer is C) use a piggyback (backing) anchor. When dragging of an anchor occurs, the best solution is to deploy a secondary "piggyback" or "backing" anchor. This additional anchor helps to secure the vessel and prevent further dragging. Adjusting the tensiometer (A), reducing conductor tension (B), or increasing riser tension (D) would not directly address the issue of anchor dragging. The use of a piggyback anchor is a common and effective solution to stabilize the vessel when the primary anchor is not holding.
