COULOMBI EGG oil tanker design - the safest design against
terrorism and pirates.
Terrorists, see M/T
Limburg, try to sink sea going oil tankers by
blowing up the side in the waterline. It doesn't work with a
COULOMBI EGG oil tanker design as behind the side in the
waterline of a COULOMBI EGG oil tanker is just a top side
ballast tank as collision
protection ... that will be flooded ... and
nothing else will happen.
Pirates capture ships off Africa and are thus a problem. But
not for the COULOMBI EGG oil tanker design! Access from main
deck into the deck house and engine room is so arranged that
no uninvited visitor, i.e. a pirate, on deck can ever get
into the deck house crew accommodation, wheel house, engine
room, steering gear room and pump room. So you do not need
armed guards to protect a COULOMBI EGG oil tanker - just
clever design.
