C) They evaluated the teams based on number of meters drilled.

Explanation:

Soviet oil drilling was an activity done to extract oil carried out by the Soviet Union. This oil is usually exported to other countries which is a major source of revenue. In the competition, the competitors were assessed based on their performance. They evaluated the teams based on number of meters drilled. It was later discovered that they gave an unfair judgement. The people that did the evaluation lacked adequate knowledge and experience in geology.
