70% to pass

On a MODU, hand portable extinguishers are size(s) _______________.

A I only
B II and III
C II only
D I and II
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) I and II. According to the regulations for mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs), hand portable fire extinguishers on a MODU must be either size I or size II. Size III extinguishers are not permitted for use on MODUs. The regulations specify the required number, type, and size of fire extinguishers based on the size and characteristics of the MODU, but hand portable extinguishers must be either size I or II. The other answer choices are incorrect because option A) I only is too narrow, option B) II and III includes an extinguisher size that is not allowed, and option C) II only excludes the permitted size I extinguishers.
