APPENDIX 1 TO SURFACE SUPPLIED DIVING – EMERGENCY PROCEDURES 2.12 EP -12


_____________________________________________________________________________________

Evacuation Procedure for an Air Diver Requiring Decompression.

1. Upon hearing the alarm for either fire or to abandon ship, notify he UTS Diving Superintendent
immediately and ensure a DMT is on deck at the air diving station.

2. An immediate and accurate assessment of the situation needs to be performed to decide the degree of
urgency. Ascertain the time needed to complete decompression or treatment and decide if it feasible.
Omitted decompression is the last resource and should be the sole responsibility of the Diving
Superintendent unless there is an immediate life threatening risk to the diver and the diving topside crew.

3. Once the decision has been made to omit decompression:


If the diver is in the water, recover the diver to deck in a controlled manner and put the diver on 100% O2
as soon as he is safely on deck.

If the diver is in chamber, surface the chamber with the diver breathing 100% O2 on the BIBS as quickly as
possible in a controlled manner. Upon exiting the chamber the diver must be put back on 100% O2
immediately.

4. The on shift lead diver and a designated member of the marine crew will prepare to launch the fast rescue
boat. (FRB).

5. The vessel medic will be contacted and all available portable oxygen cylinders and masks will be taken from
the hospital to the FRB. A portable O2 cylinder is to be kept in the air diving control van at all times.

6. Place the diver breathing O2 from the portable cylinder on the diver’s stretcher and transfer the diver to
the FRB by the safest possible route. Secure the diver on the stretcher in the FRB and proceed with the FRB
launch.

7. The FRB can carry 6 personnel which should include a marine crew coxswain, the patient, a Diver Medic and
the Air Diving Supervisor.

8. The FRB will then proceed to the nearest available hyperbaric chamber available.

6. Conclusion
A linear static analysis was performed using the NEiNastran Version 9.2.2.477 finite element solver
on the LARS SWL 1.5 T structure. The finite element model contained mainly Part I elements and consisted of
224541 degrees of freedom. 1 loading condition was analyzed. The maximum displacement was 2.718 mm
(load case Subcase 1 ). The maximum von Mises stress was 91.02 (load case Subcase 1).

7. GLOSSARY
Aspect Ratio
Ratio of an element's longest side to its adjacent side.
Bi-Directional Slide
Prevents contacting regions from separating or closing but permits sliding (zero coefficient of friction
Bounding Box
A three-dimensional cube aligned to the global x, y and z axes that exactly contains a body or assembly.
Follower Force
Loads that follow the motion of the structure as it deforms.
General Contact
Models standard nonlinear surface contact with friction if specified.
Relative Stress Error
A measure of mesh convergence (values greater than 0.01 may indicate that further mesh refinement is
required in areas with large stress gradients over a few elements).
Rough Contact
Nonlinear contact that allows separation and closure but does not permit sliding (infinite friction).
Skew Angle
The angle between the lines that join opposite midsides of a quadrilateral face.
Solution Error Measure
A measure of solution quality (values less than 1.0E-07 are generally considered acceptable).
Taper Ratio
The ratio of the areas on the two sides of a diagonal of a quadrilateral face.
Warping Angle
The extent to which a quadrilateral face deviates from being planar.
Welded Contact
Prevents contacting regions from sliding, separating, or closing.

Air LARS Load Test Procedure


_____________________________________________________________________________________

1 INTRODUCTION
This document gives guidance and direction for the load testing of the A frame arms as well as the main winch,
clump winch and braking system of both winches

1.1. PURPOSE

The purpose of this procedure is to demonstrate the Load Test Procedure of LARS main wire and clump weight
wire.

2 LOAD TEST PROCEDURE


The following steps for Load Test Procedure for Testing of LARS main wire and clump weight wire:

S/N Description Check

1 Disconnect main wire from basket.


At t ach (1) 1T lift bag and (1) 250 kg lift bag to eye of main wire, attach (1) 3m 5T sling in
2 same eye with ¾"s hackle as per photo below

3 Attach other end of sling to clump weight, choked to itself in center of clump weight

4 Attach trip line from bottom of bags to A frame

5 Lower clump weight so lift bags hanging from main wire

6 Fill li ft bags with sea water till weight is at 1.25 for dynamic test

7 Per form 1.25 dynamic test on main winch

8 Fill lift bags with sea water till weight is at 1.5 for static test
With main int ern al brake locked perform the static test on main winch at 1.5 and
9 ensure that it holds for 5 mins
To test the secondary brake you must unhook airline going to main brake and supply air
to line in order to keep the internal brake released so hand brake can be test ed, once it
10 has been secured and h and brake on and load applied hold for 5 mins.
Lowe r main lift wire below clump weight until slack, all weight now on clump weight
11 winch
With main internal brake locked perform the static test on clump winch at 1. 5 and
12 ensure that it holds for 5 mins
To test the secondary brake you must unhook airline going to main br ake and supply air to line in
order to keep the internal brake released so hand brake can be tested, once it has been secured
13 and hand brake on and load applied hold for 5 mins.

14 Drain bag till the weight is at 1.25 and perform dynamic test on clump winch
Once satisfied with winches and brakes on winches, lower clump weight and main lift wire
15 until trip line to "A" frame takes lo ad to dump seawater from lift bags.

16 Once lift bags are empty, recover to deck using trip line
