What Does a Marine Rigger Do?

Maritime replenishment refers to a kind of maritime operation activity that uses various replenishment equipment to supplement supplies and transfer personnel to ships at sea. Usually, the supply ships are used to supply ships to sea navigation and maritime activities, and to supply various supplies required for the ships to perform normal duties.

Marine supply

Maritime replenishment is a logistical support method that must be adopted in modern maritime operations, especially in COSCO operations. With sea replenishment,

Since the birth of maritime replenishment technology, several major improvements have been achieved from single replenishment to comprehensive replenishment. Development Trends of Modern Offshore Supply Technology:

Increasing the degree of automation of the replenishment device and realizing the rapid transfer of materials in the ship can increase the replenishment speed, shorten the replenishment time, and enhance the safety and reliability of maritime replenishment.

Make full use of automation and information technology, and adopt a new type of automatic connection system to ensure that in various sea conditions, the supply equipment can be automatically docked, and the sea can be efficiently replenished in high winds and waves.

Design and develop a new generation of marine replenishment system, by improving the method of replenishment rope handling, reducing replenishment rigging, and increasing load transmission capacity. .

Research on new-type navigation and rely on material transmission technology. Its main research contents include: wave-compensated cranes, new anti-collision materials, ship-to-ship safety technology, communication and supply position assistance.

On June 13, 2014, the Chinese Navy participated in the "Pacific Rim-2014" exercise. The warship formation carried out the first maritime replenishment in a certain area in the western Pacific Ocean. The ocean-going comprehensive supply ship Qiandaohu ship supplied fuel and fresh water for the Haikou and Yueyang ships at the same time. . After successfully completing the resupply, the ship formation continued to sail to the east, and plans to meet with ships from other countries near Guam on the 14th and proceed to Hawaii. ^[1]
