What is the maximum weight permitted on the cantilever pipe racks for the COASTAL DRILLER?

A 450 kips
B 500 kips
C 750 kips
D 1000 kips
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 500 kips. The maximum weight permitted on the cantilever pipe racks for the COASTAL DRILLER is 500 kips, as specified in the relevant regulations or design specifications for this type of vessel. This limit is in place to ensure the structural integrity and stability of the cantilever pipe racks, which are critical components for the safe operation of the COASTAL DRILLER. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the specified limit of 500 kips. Option A (450 kips) is too low, while options C (750 kips) and D (1000 kips) are too high and would exceed the design capacity of the cantilever pipe racks.
