AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Coast Guard. Offshore drilling units, also known as mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs), are subject to U.S. Coast Guard regulations. The Coast Guard is responsible for approving the operations manual that must be carried on board these units. This manual outlines the procedures and guidelines for the safe operation of the MODU, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations. The other options, such as the Minerals Management Service, the National Cargo Bureau, or the builder, are not the regulatory authority responsible for approving the operations manual on an offshore drilling unit.
