70% to pass

The Master or person in charge of a MODU is required to log _______________.

A the names of all persons on board
B the date and hour of each fire drill
C only casualties which occur while underway
D every event occurring on board
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) the date and hour of each fire drill. According to the regulations governing the operation of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs), the master or person in charge is required to maintain a log that includes the date and hour of each fire drill conducted on the vessel. This requirement ensures that the vessel's safety procedures are being properly implemented and documented. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) logging the names of all persons on board is not a specific regulatory requirement for MODUs, C) only logging casualties that occur while underway is too narrow in scope, and D) logging every event occurring on board would be an overly broad and impractical requirement.
