  • Transportation of equipment for the exploration and production of petroleum, gas and mineral present in icebound areas such as the north slope of Alaska and the islands of the Canadian Arctic has been severely limited by high cost, accessibility by sea for two months of the year, or less, and the size and weight limitations of airborne carriers when used during the remaining months.
  • the system consists of semi-submerged vessels having one or more hulls submerged beneath the surface of the ice and which contains propulsion and control means. Above the surface of the ice there is maintained a cargo platform which is connected to the bull or hulls of the vessel by a plurality of supporting columns, at least the frontal columns containing bow facing ice chipping means adapted to cut a path through the ice.
  • the columns are preferably vertically pivotable in order to maintain the platform above the surface of the ice during transit and to permit the platform to be lowered to the ice surface once the vessel reaches its destination.
  • the platform is adapted to retain cargo carrying pallets, plant sub-constructions and the like.
  • a pallet may be rolled off the platform, taken to its destination, the cargo removed and returned to the vessel.
  • the pallet is, in substance, a sub-assembly it is simply removed from the platform and the cargo vessel returned to its place of origin to pick up a new cargo or to transport cargo back to the point of origin or to some other destination.
  • FIG. 1 is an illustration of the cargo transport system in its conventional operation during transport over ice and shows dual hull construction.
  • FIG. 2 is an illustration of the removal of a pallet from the vessel at the point of destination and illustrates single hull construction.
  • FIG. 3 is an illustration of a navigated system provided for one or more of the submerged hulls of the cargo transport system of this invention.

  • the submerged hull or hulls are connected to a platform maintained above the ice surface by columns, preferably pivotably adjustable in a vertical direction, with at least the frontal columns containing bow oriented ice chipping systems which cut a path through the surface of the ice.
  • the columns are positioned along both the starboard and port sides of vessel.
  • the power required to cut the path is minimal with respect to the power employed by ice breakers and the like since only the columns are in contact with the ice.
  • the port and/or starboard portions of the platform house the crew and preferably contain the prime energy source whose power is used to adjust the vertical height or angle of the columns and to provide the power for the propulsion system mounted in the submerged hull or hulls as well as the hull contained monitoring system, the power being transmitted to the hull or hulls through the interconnecting columns.

  • the hulls 12 or hull 13 may also contain the water supply 25 for the crew as well as storage for liquid or fluidizable cargo 27 for transport to or from the icebound areas.
  • the water 25, fuel 29 and cargo 27 compartments are preferably separated flexible diaphragms 31 of bladder construction which allow the water, fuel, and cargo to be supplanted by seawater ballast as they are consumed or discharged without contamination. This also allows the overall buoyancy of the vessel to remain fairly constant throughout operation.
  • the prime source of power which drives the propulsion system employed, as well as the other energy requirements for the transport system may be gas turbines, steam generators, internal combustion enginers, nuclear engines and the like, with gas turbines being preferred for simplicity of operation.
  • the prime source of power generation is preferably mounted on platform 22 in housings 20 to avoid providing air conduits if the power systems are contained in hulls 12 or hull 13.
  • the power source contained in engine rooms 20 must provide the power to operate the ice cutters 26 mounted on column 24, power to generate electricity for the operation of the entire vessel as well as the power to pivot columns 24 to raise and lower platform 22 relative to the ice or land.
  • columns 24 connect the hulls 12 or hull 13 to the platform 22. At least the frontal columns are provided with ice chippers 26. As illustrated, however, all of the columns are provided with ice chippers to cover the possibility of the ice freezing prior to contact with the rearmost columns.
  • the ice chippers used may be similar to the chippers disclosed in US. Pat. No. 3,521,592 to Rosner et a1.
  • the ice chipping cutters 26 preferably consist of a plurality of adjacent ice chipping discs mounted on a pair of parallel shafts which rotate in an opposed direction to toss the chipped ice away from column 24.
  • those portions of columns 24 which may be struck by chips of ice are preferably coated with a reflective elastomeric material (not shown) or a reflective sheet of glass fiber reinforced resin such as Stratoglas alone or back filled with an elastomeric material.
  • the elastomeric material may also be porous to absorb water which aids the cushioning effect to prevent damage to column 24.
  • the ice be, during the advance of the vessel, chipped, as opposed to cut, since less power is required to chip the ice than required to cut the ice.
  • the columns 24 are preferably mounted at an angle of from about to about 45 to the vertical to assure that no lift or diving forces will be imparted to the system during transport due to the action of ice chippers 26.
  • columns 24 are preferably pivotably mounted on interconnecting axis 28 and platform 22. This permits the vertical height of platform 22 to be adjusted relative to hulls 12 or hull 13 to meet deviation in ice thicknesses and to maintain platform 22 above the ice during transit and lower the platform cause pivoting of column 24 relative to hulls 12 or hull 13 and platform 22 in a bow to stem direction.
  • hydraulic pistons 30 may be supplanted by a screw device drive or the like for pivoting columns 24

  • the cabin 32 also, as a minimum, contains radar device 34 and antenna 36 to maintain communication with servicing vessels and the like to permit servicing of the vessel, itself, or for a change of crew.
  • the undersea operation of a hull is monitored by lights 38 employed in conjunction with TV camera 40 and normally contains sonar devices connected by cables to suitable control means 41.
  • the bow of the hull or hulls may also be provided with thrust system 42 comprising intercornmunicating horizontal thrust ports vertical ports 46 and reverse thrust port 48. At least thrust ports 44 and 46 contain reversible motor driven reverse port impellers 50 or water turbines. Thrust ports 46 are used for raising and lowering the vessel, particularly at low speeds.
  • Thrust ports 44 which are horizontally oriented are used to alter the sideward motion of the vessel and are particularly useful in docking operations.
  • Thrust port 48 is used as a reverse thrust port to alter the forward movement of the vessel and serves as a brake. It may contain its own impeller but, preferably, contains a flap valve 52. When thrust ports 44 and 46 are operated such that water taken in it, is forced against flap 52 which opens, and flows out port 48 to provide reverse thrust for the transport system.
  • the motive power for the system is contained on platform 22, it may, as indicated, be contained in the hull or hulls of the vessel 10 with the air required for operation of the engines being supplied through columns 24. This, however, increases hull size and presents some problem of air flow and exhaust. Therefore, it is preferred to maintain the prime motive power for the transport system on the platform 22.
  • platform 22 contains at least zone 54 upon which cargo can be carried or on which a pallet 56 containing cargo is carried or on which a preform for a structure (not shown) under construction may be carried.
