I. Category of Ocean Vehicles

• By Support (restoring) Forces
• -Supported by buoyancy force Conventional
  displacement ship
• - Supported by Hydrodynamic force - Hydrofoil
  ships and Planning Hull ships, at Full Speed.
• -Supported by Aerostatic force (pressure) -
  Air cushion vehicles at full speed
• -Ground supported- Ocean drilling platform
  (median and shallow water)

4

• By Missions
• -Military Purpose
• Aircraft carrier, Cruiser, Destroyer, Service
  vessel, Patrol boat (gun boat), Landing craft.
• -Non-military Purpose
• a. Transportation Passenger ship,
  Container ships, Bulk carrier (wheat, coal, ore,
  mineral), Oil tanker (very large), Specific
  vessel (LNG, etc.)

5

• By Missions (continues)
• -Non-military Purpose
• b. Work Platform Offshore drilling Oil
  and gas production Oceanography research
  Electronic tracking and surveillance satellite,
  communication, weather monitoring and navigation
  assistance Ocean mining and dredging Fishing,
  fish-processing Offshore processing sea water,
  minerals Offshore power generation Offshore
  service construction, pipe laying, salvage and
  retrieval, Ice-breaker Offshore support for
  personnel

6

• By Missions (continues)
• -Non-military Purpose
• c. Offshore commerce Breakwaters,
  artificial harbors (marinas) Deepwater mooring
  (buoys) At sea storage (gas and LNG terminal)
  Recreation (artificial reef)
• Sea fish farms Wind Mills Renewable
  Energy

7
By Configurations

• Surface displacement Conventional ships (single
  hull) Catamaran (double hull, large deck area,
  small displacement, excellent stability).
• Near Surface Air cushion vehicles Hydrofoils
  and planning hull craft (small displacement, high
  speed)
• Submerged Submersibles submarines Underwater
  habitats Submerged buoys.
• Semi submersibles Very deep, small water plane
• Bottom supported Temporary Permanent jack-up

III. General Requirements

• For ocean transportation vehicles
• Mobility, speed
• Ability to carry payload (wt/total displacement)
• Cost (lift/drag or wt/drag ratio)
• Performance (motion, maneuvering, safety)
• See p3 of the textbook

General Requirements (Continue)

• For Work Platforms
• - Performance motion, station keeping,
  structure.
• - Logistics mobility, delivery system, support
  systems.
• - Economics initial, operating cost,
  maintenance.
