The righting moment created by a MODU that displaces 15,000 tons with a righting arm (GZ) of 0.02 foot is __________.

Correct Answer: Option D — 300 foot-tons

Righting moment represents the turning force restoring a vessel to upright and equals displacement multiplied by the righting arm (GZ). Multiplying 15,000 tons displacement by a GZ of 0.02 foot yields 300 foot-tons, complying with standard marine stability calculation methods outlined in naval architecture references.
