On offshore drilling units, any reports of a casualty that are made are required to be retained on board for a period of at least _______________.

A 3 months
B 6 months
C 12 months
D 24 months
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 3 months. The requirement to retain reports of casualties on offshore drilling units for at least 3 months is specified in 46 CFR 109.431, which states that records of each reportable casualty must be retained on board for a minimum of 3 months. The other answer choices are incorrect because 6 months (B), 12 months (C), and 24 months (D) are not the required retention period specified in the regulations for offshore drilling units.
