About this title

Synopsis

Dynamic Positioning AKA ‘DP’ Position and Thrusters That’s what DP’s about\Ship’s desired position goes in Thrust commands come out Generators and thrusters Is also what it’s all about The generators put the power in And the thrusters put it out. NASA’s moto says, ‘Failure is not an option’ But in DP failure is always a possibility But not to allow for failure, is not So DP invariably Involves redundancy. We don’t use anchors in any way They’re just so pass� Compared to Dynamic Positioning Moorings are totally boring After many years of searching It came to me the mantra ‘Anchors are for Wankers’ So come on a journey with me About this technology. It’s many different engineering disciplines Some of the personalities And plenty of ‘sea stories’. There should be plenty here for amusement For those with or without out a technical bent.
