70% to pass

Among the equipment included in the DEEP DRILLER lightweight are the loading hoses, traveling block in the lowest position, anchors, mooring chain, all machinery with liquids to normal operating level, and _______________.

A normal food supplies for 79 persons
B eight anchor buoys
C lower hull fuel
D derrick
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) derrick. The derrick is considered part of the DEEP DRILLER lightweight, as it is a critical piece of equipment for the offshore drilling operation. The derrick is a tall framework used to support and operate the drilling equipment, and it is an essential component of the DEEP DRILLER. The other options are incorrect because they do not represent essential equipment that would be considered part of the DEEP DRILLER's lightweight. Normal food supplies, anchor buoys, and lower hull fuel are not directly related to the core drilling equipment and operations.
