The Master or person in charge of a mobile offshore drilling unit shall ensure the crane record book shows _______________.

A the name of the operator
B the American Petroleum Institute name plate data
C the average load in pounds each usage
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) the American Petroleum Institute name plate data. The regulation that makes this the correct answer is 33 CFR 140.101, which states that the master or person in charge of a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) must ensure the crane record book shows the American Petroleum Institute name plate data. This information is required to be documented in the crane record book to provide details on the crane's capacity and specifications. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not align with the specific regulatory requirement for the crane record book on a MODU. The name of the operator (A) and the average load in pounds each usage (C) are not mandated content for the crane record book under the relevant regulations.
