Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a floating craft such as a ship equipped with pollutant fluid recovery means in the event of a disaster, and a method for recovering this fluid.
  • Licences FR2849640 , FR2869012 and FR2878225 belonging to the plaintiff, describe various systems for recovering a pollutant fluid inside the tanks of a damaged vessel, that is to say a ship that has failed or sunk.
  • the present invention is intended to provide a vessel equipped with pollutant fluid recovery means requiring less or no additional bridge crossings.
  • the connector is connected to an organ which, in normal times, is used for other functions on the floating machine.
  • the present invention also relates to a method for extracting a polluting fluid as defined in claims 17 and 18.
  • This bunker comprises two aeration ducts 7a and 7b crossing the deck 3, and each surmounted on the one hand with a vent 9a, 9b and on the other hand, a connector 11a, 11b, T reported on these pipes.
  • this connector 11 comprises a short-length pipe 13 surmounted by a welded collar 15 on which a solid flange 17 is attached by suitable fixing means such as sets of screws and nuts 19.
  • the two lines 7a and 7b are conduits which exist independently of the question of the recovery of the fluid located inside the compartment 1 in case of disaster; it can however be envisaged that the diameter of these two pipes is different from that of the pipes that are commonly used for the aeration of the hold 1.
  • the variant of the figure 4 differs from the previous one in that the aeration pipe 7b is connected to the arterial pipe 7a, an additional rescue pipe 21 then being interposed between the pipe 7b and a connector 11b mounted on the deck 3 of the ship 5 .
  • This second variant is particularly well illustrated on the figure 5 , on which there are shown two bunkers 1 surmounted each of its aeration ducts 7a, 7b, the pipes 7a themselves being surmounted by their connectors 11a and their vents 9a, and the pipes 7b being confronted as for them of their additional rescue lines 21 and their connectors 11b.
  • the hold 1 initially comprises only one ventilation pipe 7a, surmounted by a vent 9a and a connector 11a, and there is added a specific rescue hose 23 directly connecting the cargo hold 1 to a connector 11b located at the bridge 3.
  • the hold 1 comprises a probe line 25 making it possible to measure the level of fluid situated inside the compartment 1, this line being surmounted by a connector 11a situated at the level of the deck 3 of the ship 5.
  • An overflow pipe 27 is also provided, this pipe making it possible to evacuate in a circuit 29 the overflow of fluid located inside the cargo hold 1.
  • the vessel comprising these tanks can then be for example a tanker.
  • the connectors for rescue operations are in this case integrated with different communication organs with the tank.
  • FIG. 9 there is shown a connector 11 of the type mentioned previously reported Té mounted on a ventilation pipe 33 itself mounted on the deck 3 of the ship 5 and communicating with a tank 1 located below this bridge.
  • such a ventilation duct can be surmounted by a fan 35.
  • the pipe 33 provided with the connector 11 is surmounted by a decompression valve 37, known per se and for discharging outside the vessel 1 the pressurized gases contained in this vessel.
  • a load line 39 that is to say a pipe for loading the tank 1 fluid to be transported.
  • the connector 11 can be attached in Tee on the pipe 39, so as to be directed upwards, as can be seen on the Figures 13 and 14 .
  • the connector 11 is welded to a plate 41 itself bolted to the deck of the vessel, above the vessel 1; such a plate, shaped for example oblong as is visible on the figure 16 , is commonly called “manhole” plate and allows a person to enter the tank 1 to make the visit.
  • the connector 11 is welded to a plate 43 itself bolted to a cleaning tape 45.
  • such a cleaning step is a passage through the deck 3 of the vessel for inserting inside the tank 1 cleaning tools of this vessel.
  • FIG 19 there is shown by way of example a ventilation assembly 11, 33, 35, a decompression assembly 11, 33, 37 and two insulated connectors 11 mounted hard cleaning steps 45 fixed on the deck 3 of a ship 5 above a tank 1.
  • the connectors 11 are connected to pipes which fulfill particular functions when the ship 5 is in normal operating mode, that is to say outside rescue situations: these pipes allow for example to provide ventilation, decompression, probe, filling, emptying, visit or cleaning the tank.
  • a single life-saving connector per tank mounted on a pipe assigned at least in part to at least one function that is operational outside the rescue situations: such a single connector would make it possible to introducing a pumping hose into the tank of a stranded ship or at least one of which has a breach.
