🔍 Key Concepts

• Stability requirements for MODUs (Mobile Offshore Drilling Units), especially column-stabilized units like COASTAL DRILLER • How damage stability is defined (survival after flooding of any one watertight compartment) • Typical design environmental wind speeds used for intact vs. damage stability cases for offshore units

💭 Think About

• Think about whether damage stability is usually checked against moderate, severe, or extreme wind conditions for a column-stabilized drilling unit • Consider which wind speed seems realistic for a unit that must survive flooding of any one watertight compartment without capsizing • Ask yourself whether the highest wind speeds listed would more likely apply to ultimate survival storms or to routine operating/damage conditions

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that you are thinking about a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) standard, not a conventional ship standard • Check which of the listed wind speeds is most consistent with a design operating / damage condition, rather than a once-in-a-lifetime survival storm • Be sure you understand that "sufficient reserve stability" here refers to remaining righting ability after damage and flooding, not just intact stability in calm weather
