with detailed examples of three mooring systems of different types that have been successfully fielded.
Chapter 41. The Liquid Natural Gas Carrier chapter discusses the challenges related to the transport
of LNG. This chapter first addresses the type of vessels used, both historically and currently. It focuses
next on the challenges of transporting such a cold and
dangerous cargo and describes the recent advances in
solving both environmental and engineering problems,
inclusive of sloshing and cargo transfer. The chapter
concludes by discussing design methodologies for the
various containment systems.
Chapter 42. The Salvage Operation chapter
presents an introduction to salvage engineering. This
chapter outlines the various principles of naval architecture to be able to assess the strength and stability of
a damaged vessel. It focuses on the various facets of salvage engineering, focusing on key steps, from planning
to survey to reporting, and disseminate the critical information necessary for successful operations. The chapter
concludes on types of specific salvages and highlights
the differences between them.
Chapter 43. The Oil Spills and Response chapter
is treats the random phenomenon of oil spills that
occur in many sizes and forms. This chapter summarizes the response and cleanup of oil spills. The
behavior of oil when spilled dictates the environmental
impact it will have. Once spilled, oil on the sea is
typically contained using booms and is recovered
using skimmers. Dealing with recovered oil and
disposing of it are important steps. Spill treating
agents are occasionally used. In-situ burning of oil is
now being used more frequently. Finally, spilled oil
often contacts shorelines, therefore assessment and
careful removal techniques for shorelines are essential.
