How often must the emergency generator be tested on a mobile offshore drilling unit?

A Once each day
B Once each week
C Once each month
D Once each year
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Once each month. The requirement for testing the emergency generator on a mobile offshore drilling unit is stipulated in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 111.91-1(c). This regulation states that the emergency generator must be tested under load for at least 2 hours at least once each month. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) testing once a day is more frequent than required, B) testing once a week is also more frequent than the monthly requirement, and D) testing only once a year would be less frequent than the monthly requirement.
