A the name of the owner or agent of the unit
B an evaluation of who was at fault
C the estimated cost of damage to the unit
D the amount of ballast on board
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) the name of the owner or agent of the unit. According to US Coast Guard regulations, a report of casualty to a mobile offshore drilling unit must include the name of the owner or agent of the unit. This information is required to properly identify the responsible party and establish liability. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not align with the specific reporting requirements for a mobile offshore drilling unit casualty. An evaluation of fault, the estimated cost of damage, and the amount of ballast on board are not mandated elements of the casualty report.
