While loaded as shown in the DEEP DRILLER Sample Load Form #4 (Drilling), all of the liquid mud is dumped. What is the new uncorrected KG?

Correct Answer: Option B — 52.20 feet

Removing liquid mud alters ship weight and vertical moments. Subtracting the discharged mud's weight and vertical moment from initial totals, then dividing by the new displacement yields the revised uncorrected KG of 52.20 feet, per standard MODU stability calculation procedures governed by 46 CFR.
