AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) Oil Rig chain and Oil Field Stud Link chain. This is the correct answer because these are the two main types of stud link chain used in maritime and offshore applications. Oil Rig chain is a common type of stud link chain used to secure and moor offshore oil rigs and platforms. Oil Field Stud Link chain is another type of stud link chain specifically designed for use in the oil and gas industry, often in subsea applications. The other answer choices are incorrect. Flash-butt welded chain is a different type of chain that is not considered a stud link chain. Di-Lok chain is also not one of the main types of stud link chain used in maritime or offshore operations.
