Ocean mining systems that incorporate a single or double lift pipe are two methods used to obtain polimetallic nodules from the seabed. The pipe must be equipped with main cables and flexible pipe attached to the mining vehicle collecting nodules. While mining, the pipes in the vertical configuration are moving along with the ship above. They are subjected to currents in the water column. Such current-induced...
One of the methods of collecting polymetallic nodules from the sea floor is a hydraulic system using a single or double vertical pipeline. While mining, collecting pipelines suspended from a mining support vessel (MSV) move together. As a result of both the MSV’s motion with a suspended pipe system and water action (including deep-water currents) a vertical deflection and deformation occur along the...
