Question 3324 Deck General

The correct answer is A) where oil or chemical drums are stored. On a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU), a fixed carbon dioxide or other approved fire extinguishing system must be installed in locations where oil or chemical drums are stored, as per the regulations. This is to ensure that in the event of a fire, the system can quickly suppress the fire and prevent it from spreading, protecting the stored flammable materials. The other options (B, C, and D) are incorrect because the regulations do not require a fixed fire extinguishing system in paint lockers or all battery storage locations on a MODU. The requirement is specifically for areas where oil or chemical drums are stored.
