How many adult life jackets are required on board a MODU?

A Enough for 150 percent of the persons allowed on board
B Enough for 100 percent of the persons allowed on board
C One for each work station and industrial work site
D Both A & B above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Both A & B above. The regulations for life jackets on board a MODU (Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit) require enough adult life jackets for 150% of the persons allowed on board (option A) as well as enough for 100% of the persons allowed on board (option B). This redundancy ensures adequate life jacket coverage in case of an emergency. The other options are incorrect - option C only requires life jackets at work stations, not for all persons on board, and option B alone does not meet the 150% requirement specified in the regulations.
