70% to pass

Mobile offshore drilling units not required to have an official logbook shall _______________.

A not be required to maintain a logbook
B maintain an unofficial logbook
C report only major events to the OCMI
D maintain a logbook on Form CG-706
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) maintain an unofficial logbook. According to U.S. Coast Guard regulations, mobile offshore drilling units that are not required to have an official logbook must still maintain an unofficial logbook to record relevant operational information and events. This is because maintaining some form of operational record is considered a best practice, even if an official logbook is not mandated. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the Coast Guard's requirements for non-official logbooks on mobile offshore drilling units.
