🔍 Key Concepts

• Lifeboat drills vs. actual launching and operation on a MODU • The difference between monthly abandon-ship drills and the separate requirement to actually put the boat in the water and maneuver it • Relevant provisions in 46 CFR for Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs) and SOLAS Chapter III for lifeboat exercises

💭 Think About

• Think about how often a crew can realistically lower, launch, and operate a lifeboat in the water, considering weather, operations, and safety risks • Separate in your mind the requirement to inspect or swing out lifeboats from the stricter requirement to actually launch and maneuver them in the water • Consider what interval is commonly used on seagoing vessels for full in‑water lifeboat launching and whether MODUs generally follow a similar pattern

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Part 109 (MODU operations) or the applicable SOLAS III provisions what interval is specified for launching and operating lifeboats, not just for drills • Confirm that you are not confusing the rule for abandon-ship drills (often done more frequently) with the rule for waterborne launching and maneuvering • Check exactly which option (month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months) matches the regulatory interval for in‑water lifeboat launching and operation on a MODU
