Abstract

904,126. Submerged tanks. BETHLEHEM STEEL CO. Oct. 19, 1960 [Oct. 23, 1959], No. 35816/60. Class 68 (2). A marine oil storage apparatus comprises a hull 1 which may be submerged on to the sea bed and which is divided into a number of separate compartments, e.g. 7, 10, 11, 12. Four columns 13 are secured to the hull, one at each corner, which extend above the surface of the surrounding water. Oil is received in the tank battery 19 and may be passed to the compartments 7, 10, 11, 12 to displace the water already in the compartments up to the receiver 42 to overflow into the surrounding water. Oil from storage may be passed to a tanker directly from the tanks 19 or it may be displaced from the submerged compartments into the lines 43, 44, 49, 50 by pumping water into the receiver 42 so that it passes to the compartment through lines 63 to 68. The apparatus may be refloated by using compressed air.
