A1 year at a minimum.
B2 years at a minimum.
C3 years at a minimum.
D4 years at a minimum.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) 3 years at a minimum. According to 33 CFR 151.25, the Oil Record Book must be maintained on board the vessel for a period of 3 years after the last entry has been made. This is the minimum required retention period specified in the regulations. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not align with the 3-year minimum requirement stated in the regulations. One year (A) and two years (B) are too short, while four years (D) exceeds the minimum.
