Question 4382 Deck General
70% to passWhen assuming the maximum ice weight accumulation on the DEEP DRILLER at survival draft, the vertical moments are increased by _______________.
A
40,402 ft-long tons
B
42,255 ft-long tons
C
45,593 ft-long tons
D
49,280 ft-long tons
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 45,593 ft-long tons. When ice accumulates on a vessel, it increases the vertical moments, which affects the vessel's stability. For the DEEP DRILLER at survival draft, the increase in vertical moments due to the maximum ice weight accumulation is 45,593 ft-long tons. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the increase in vertical moments caused by the maximum ice weight accumulation on the DEEP DRILLER at survival draft. Options A, B, and D are incorrect values that do not match the regulatory requirements or calculations for this scenario.
