On a MODU, how many ring buoys are required to have a buoyant line attached?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) One ring life buoy on each side of the MODU. This is the correct answer because the regulations for offshore MODUs (Mobile Offshore Drilling Units) require that one ring life buoy on each side of the MODU must have a buoyant line attached. This ensures that there are readily available flotation devices with lines that can be thrown to a person in the water. The other options are incorrect because A) requires only one ring life buoy, B) requires too many, and D) requires more than the necessary two ring life buoys with lines.
