70% to pass

The litter on a MODU must be able to _______________.

A be used on the types of helicopters serving the unit
B carry at least two injured persons
C float for at least two hours
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) be used on the types of helicopters serving the unit. The US Coast Guard regulations require that the litter on a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) must be capable of being used with the types of helicopters that typically serve that MODU. This ensures that in an emergency, injured personnel can be safely transported off the MODU by helicopter using the provided litter. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the specific Coast Guard requirement for MODU litters. While options B and C may be desirable features, they are not the primary regulatory requirement for MODU litters.
