Command and control complex (CCC)
MCC structure and composition
The command and control complex of the multi-purpose Arctic salvage icebreaker is a total of special premises – command posts and control posts (rooms) to arrange the special unit – the rescue party staff – and to provide the premises with the technical means of information display, information support for decision-making, planning and control of the rescue operations and means of communication.
The composition of posts of the rescue operations command and control complex:
- main command station (MCS) is combined with the pilot house and conning station;
- operational centre for the rescue operations planning (OCROP);
- aviation and air technical means control post (AATM CP);
- fire-extinguishing deck guns control post (DG CP);
- deck operations control post (OCP “Paluba”);
- underwater engineering and diving operations control post (UEDO CP).
Automated system of information support for planning and control of rescue operations and underwater engineering operations
(ASISP CRO-UEDO)
In order to provide the information support for the preparation and planning, carrying out and control of various types of rescue operations and underwater engineering and diving operations, the vessel is equipped with the automated system of information support for planning and control of rescue operations and underwater engineering operations (hereinafter referred to as the ASISP CRO-UEDO).
To perform its functions, the ASISP CRO-UEDO complex is connected in real time to the navigation complex of small OSR vessels, as well as to the separate complexes of radar means, surface, air and underwater illumination, external and internal communication (radio communication) means, external and internal CCTV and industrial TV.
The ASISP CRO-UEDO complex is designed as a hardware-software system with an open architecture based on the modular and functional building principle.
The main propulsion plant is a diesel-electric one with two propellers with a fixed pitch of ice type.
Total capacity of the diesel engines of four main diesel generators (6960 kW each) is 27.84 MW. Total capacity of four main generators
(6680 kW each) is 26.72 MW.
Total capacity of four electric propulsion motors (two electric propulsion motors per each shaft, capacity of one electric propulsion motor is
5.5 MW) ensures a capacity of 22 MW at the propeller shafts.
In order to improve the vessel steering at slow speed, vessel manoeuvrability, to ensure the vessel positioning, two thrusters of the type “Fixed pitch screw (FPS) in the crossover line” with a capacity of 1000 kW (total 4×1000 kW) are provided both at the bow and stern of the vessel.
Equipment for the oil spills response and rescue operations:
- multi-purpose oil-gathering vessel of ice class КМ Ice2 R3 (2 pcs.)
- air-cushion rescue craft of IRBIS type (1 pcs.)
- electro hydraulic deck-mounted full-circle slewing boom crane KEG80019 with load capacity of 80 t (1 pcs.)
- multi-purpose shipboard crane with load capacity of 12 t, boom reach of 16 m (2 pcs.)
- oil-gathering vessel for arctic conditions of LAS type equipped with additional float gages to be used as a free-floating skimmer (2 pcs.)
- hose winch for the oil-pumping hose and hydraulic hoses of the gathering vessel (2 pcs.)
- cantilever jib with guiding float gages installed by the crane (2 pcs.)
- air-filled fender boom with length of 100 m, height of 1 m (of the heavy duty sea booms HDB type) (2 pcs.)
- hydraulic section rolling machines of HSR type to store the heavy duty sea booms HDB (5 pcs.)
- stern skimmer Sternmax 28 for arctic conditions, and launching system (1 pcs.)
- telescopic Access Bridge (TAB) of XL type (1 pcs.)
- mobile deep-water diving complex GVK-300M (1 set)
- facility for lifting the rescued people from water and ice (1 set).
The competitive advantage of the designed multi-purpose Arctic salvage icebreaker over the vessels of the similar type lies in the application and implementation of the following solutions:
1) The vessel is designed as an Arctic diesel-electric icebreaker for operation in the adverse ice and climatic conditions of the Russian Arctic Region and the Far East for class Icebreaker 8 of the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping.
2) The vessel is equipped with a set of special rescue appliances and equipment in the form of a telescopic access bridge (crane bridge), multi-purpose rescue boom-laying boats and air-cushion rescue craft, small oil and garbage gathering vessels, electro hydraulic crane for lowering and lifting the small vessels on the vessel working deck, facilities for lifting the rescued people from water and ice.
3) Multi-purpose arctic salvage icebreaker (MPASI) equipment includes the air-cushion rescue craft that ensures rescuing of personnel from the platform in distress evacuated to the ice field long before the MPASI arrival and carries out the rescue operations together with the MPASI way to the accident area, what significantly reduces the duration of the rescue operation and improves its efficiency.
4) The MPASI carries the complex of special equipment for the oil and oil products spills response operating also during the winter in the ice of the seas of the Russian Arctic Region and the Far East.
5) Disaster medicine hospital is organized on the MPASI, the vessel can take up 200 persons on board and ensure the transportation of the rescued people to the port, as well as provide them with all types of medical aid including with the surgical ones.
6) The vessel is equipped with the deep-water diving complex ensuring the diving operations at depths of up to 300 meters, underwater engineering operations aimed at arrangement of offshore oil and gas fields, underwater rescue operations.
7) The particular advantage of the MPASI is a use of “Automated system of information support for planning and control of rescue operations and underwater engineering operations (ASISP CRO-UEDO)”, which nowadays is not available on any of the constructed and operated vessels. The implementation of this solution dramatically improves the effectiveness of the designed vessel as a multi-purpose rescue vessel operating, among the other areas, in the areas of accidents at offshore oil and gas platforms when using the various combinations of the rescue facilities including the air technical means (helicopters, unmanned aviation complex).
