70% to pass

The person on a MODU who is responsible for maintaining the engineering spaces in a clean and sanitary condition is the _______________.

A Chief Engineer, or engineer in charge if no chief engineer is required
B senior mechanic, or mechanic on duty if no senior mechanic designated
C senior electrician, or electrician on duty if no senior electrician designated
D Master, or person in charge
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Chief Engineer, or engineer in charge if no chief engineer is required. The chief engineer or engineer in charge is responsible for maintaining the engineering spaces in a clean and sanitary condition on a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU). This is because the chief engineer is the senior engineer on board and is responsible for the overall management and maintenance of the engineering systems and equipment. The other options are incorrect because the senior mechanic, senior electrician, or the master do not have the primary responsibility for the engineering spaces.
