    The system employed a 10 in (254 mm) [clarification needed] towing hawser, two 6 in (150 mm) breast lines to prevent the rupture of the refueling hose between the two vessels, and 50 ft (15 m) lengths of 4 in (100 mm) rubber fuel hose. A pump was used to speed up the transfer of fuel.

  3. Lifeline (safety) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifeline_(safety)

    Horizontal lifeline systems require careful engineering due to the specific nature of the structures they are designed for, ensuring safety in high-risk areas. [ 3 ] Lifeline wire has traditionally been available in 1/8" ( 3.175 mm) and 3/16" ( 4.763 mm) wire diameters, with a soft but durable vinyl coating increasing the effective diameters to ...

  4. Cable fairing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_fairing

    A cable fairing is a structure attached to a towed cable designed to streamline the flow around the cable, primarily in marine environments.. Cables are faired primarily for two reasons: (1) to reduce normal drag and thus achieve more depth for a given cable scope and speed; and (2) to eliminate cable vibration caused by vortex shedding, commonly known as cable strum.

  5. Single buoy mooring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_buoy_mooring

    The heart of each buoy is the product transfer system. From a geostatic location, e.g. a pipeline end manifold (PLEM) located on the seabed, this system transfers products to the offtake tanker. The basic product transfer system components are: Flexible subsea hoses, generally referred to as “risers” Floating hose string(s) Marine Breakaway ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transatlantic_cables_incident

    The 1884 Convention for the Protection of Submarine Telegraph Cables was the first international compact to deal with underwater cables. [8] It proscribes breakage or damage of such cables — except by belligerents engaged in open war — and permits the naval forces of state parties to engage in certain enforcement actions against suspected offenders.

  7. Drilling riser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_Riser

    Drilling riser joints with buoyancy modules. A drilling riser is a conduit that provides a temporary extension of a subsea oil well to a surface drilling facility. Drilling risers are categorised into two types: marine drilling risers used with subsea blowout preventer (BOP) and generally used by floating drilling vessels; and tie-back drilling risers used with a surface BOP and generally ...

    WACS – (West Africa Cable System) (South Africa, Namibia, Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Nigeria, Togo, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Cape Verde, Canary Islands, Portugal, United Kingdom)

  9. Submarine power cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_power_cable

    The inner and outer conductors of a cable form the plates of a capacitor, and if the cable is long (on the order of tens of kilometres), this will result in a noticeable phase shift between voltage and current, thus significantly decreasing the efficiency of the transmitted power, which is a vector product of current and voltage.
