The minimum number of portable C-II fire extinguishers required on the drill floor of a MODU is _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) 2.
The requirement for the minimum number of portable C-II fire extinguishers on the drill floor of a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) is specified in 46 CFR 108.495. This regulation states that a minimum of two such fire extinguishers must be provided on the drill floor.
The other options are incorrect because 1 extinguisher would be insufficient, 3 would exceed the minimum requirement, and 4 would also exceed the minimum requirement. The regulation clearly specifies 2 as the minimum number of portable C-II fire extinguishers required on the drill floor of a MODU.
