Chapter 445 Semi-submersible Ship

445 semi-submersible boat

Black Dragon commando command center.

Chen Yan took off the earphones, put them gently on the table, then stood up and walked quickly to another staff officer, whispering a few words in her ear.

"Understood!" The staff officer was stunned for a moment, looked up at the pretty Chen Yan, and after confirming that her instructions were very clear and clear, she immediately followed the instructions, even though she was very surprised and puzzled , but still meticulously followed Chen Yan's request.

Just after Chen Yan finished her mission, political commissar Li Li walked in.

Seeing Chen Yan's smiling face, Li Li was overjoyed, and quickly asked, "Why, is there a result?"

"En!" Chen Yan nodded emphatically: "The captain has made a major discovery!"

After that, she told what Su Qi found out one by one.

After Li Li heard this, she was taken aback.

The kind of boat that Su Qi found was very remote. A year ago, to be honest, she had never even heard of the name, because this kind of thing is too small, and she only heard of it by chance, but for She hadn't seen the real thing yet.

Is there really such a thing?
She frowned.

It's not that she doubts Su Qi's judgment, but that she really can't figure out what does a semi-submersible ship mean?
A semi-submersible ship is also called a semi-submersible mother ship. It submerges the loading deck into the water through the adjustment of its own ballast water, so as to float the specific cargo (such as barges, yachts, ships, drilling platforms, etc.) to be carried from the designated position. Enter the cargo deck of the semi-submersible ship and transport the cargo to the designated location.

A semi-submersible ship is a special ship design method. Different from ordinary surface ships, a semi-submersible ship usually has a deeper draft, but it is not completely submerged in the water like a submarine, but part of the hull or structure is exposed. out of water.

Due to the high proportion of volume submerged in the water, the semi-submersible vessel is less likely to be affected by waves on the sea surface, and can maintain better stability and is suitable for use as a working platform on the water.

The earliest semi-submersible ships were developed for use on offshore oil drilling platforms, but there are also uses including semi-submersible crane ships, offshore support ships, and offshore production platforms.

There are many semi-submersible ships that are fixed in a specific position in a moored manner and do not have power themselves, so they need to be transported to the setting site by special ships such as heavy-duty ships;

But there are also semi-submersible designs such as sea-based X-band radars that are inherently slow-moving and can move at sea under their own power.

The construction of semi-submersible ships is complicated, and the process of using them is extremely dangerous. Since they are loaded with super-large components weighing tens of thousands of tons, they have a high center of gravity, poor stability, and are vulnerable to wind and waves.A little carelessness will cause a serious accident of shipwreck and death.

Therefore, before each voyage, professional software must be used to calculate various data in the process of ship loading and transportation to control risks.

1999年11月2日，荷兰Dockwise航运公司的“Mighty Servant 2”号半潜船在印尼海域触礁沉没，当时有5名船员遇难。

On the morning of December 2006, 12, the semi-submersible ship "Mighty Servant 6" of the Netherlands Dockwise shipping company carrying the drilling platform "Aleutian Key" sank accidentally while operating in the waters of Luanda Port, Angola.

The sea was calm when the accident happened, but it was only 30 minutes from the accident to the sinking of the semi-submersible ship. All 3 crew members of the "Mighty Servant 21" were rescued.The drilling platform "Aleutian Key" was also safe and sound, and none of the 83 crew members on the drilling platform was injured or injured.

There are mainly four companies operating semi-submersible vessels in the world, which are in an oligopoly state.In addition to COSCO Shipping, the other three are Dutch shipping company DOCKWISE, Norwegian OCEAN HEAVYLIFT (OHT) and Dutch FAIRSTAR.

In other words, this kind of thing, ordinary people can't buy it at all, and they can't afford it.

Li Li's willow leaf-like eyebrows were tightly knit together, she instinctively felt that this matter was not simple, but she couldn't remember what was so complicated for a while.

At this moment, Chen Yan murmured: "Political commissar, if there is really a semi-submersible ship there, then the problem will be serious?"

"Huh?" Li Li raised her head and looked at Chen Yan.

Chen Yan is taller than her, and her figure is not as good as hers, but her face is as delicate as hers, and her eyes seem to have light, which always gives people a strange feeling, which makes people unable to resist like.

She hasn't been in contact with Chen Yan for a long time - although the two have known each other for a long time, they haven't really worked together for a long time.

But through these few days of contact, she found that Chen Yan was really good, and she liked working with her very much.

"What do you mean?" Li Li was not sure what Chen Yan meant.

"Political Commissar, the Chief of Staff has been researching Black Star's related information with me for the past few days, and we found that there seems to be something wrong with Black Star recently. However, neither the Chief of Staff nor I can see where the problem is."

"You mean—this semi-submersible ship belongs to Black Star?" Li Li was taken aback.

This kind of semi-submersible ship seems simple, but its technical content is very high. To be honest, ordinary shipyards can’t make it at all. If this semi-submersible ship is really Black Star’s, then the truth behind it may be It's a bit shocking!

"Are there any other discoveries?" Li Li hurriedly asked again after regaining her senses.

Chen Yan shook her head: "The information we have now is still too little, it is best to get the relevant data of the semi-submersible ship, so that we can conduct further reconnaissance and draw more conclusions. In addition, we can also base on That ship is here for reconnaissance, but that may take more time!"

"The ship?"

"En!" Chen Yan nodded: "We'd better get the relevant data of that ship."

"But didn't the captain say that many useful things on the ship have been erased? I'm afraid it will be difficult to get useful data!"

"The captain seems to have sent someone to dive into the water, maybe they can get something useful!"

"Dive into the water?" Li Li was taken aback.

It's really unexpected that Su Qi could think of sending someone to dive underwater. To be honest, if he was the captain, he wouldn't have thought of this level.

From this point of view, she is really not the material to be the captain!

call--

Li Li raised her head and exhaled lightly.

Judging from now, their mission is about to make a major breakthrough!
She was still worried before, for fear that there would be a problem with their first mission of the Black Dragon Commando, and the first shot would not be fired, but judging from the current situation, that kind of worry - probably won't happen.

"It feels good to work with Su Qi!"

The corners of Li Li's lips were the same, pulling out a beautiful arc, and her mood improved a lot.

"Oh, by the way, Chen Yan, come with me, I have something to talk to you alone!"

"Good commissar!"
