  2. Diving chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_chamber

    A diving chamber is a vessel for human occupation, which may have an entrance that can be sealed to hold an internal pressure significantly higher than ambient pressure, a pressurised gas system to control the internal pressure, and a supply of breathing gas for the occupants. [1] There are two main functions for diving chambers:

    BRP Datu Cabaylo (MMOV-3001) (also known as DA-BFAR MMOV-3001) is the lead ship of a new class of 30-meter multi-mission offshore civilian patrol vessels operated by the Philippine government's Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources. [5]

  4. Moon pool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_pool

    Very deep moon pools are used in underwater habitats—submerged chambers used by divers engaged in underwater research, exploration, marine salvage, and recreation. In this case, shown in part D of the diagram, there is no dry access between the chamber and the sea surface, and the moon pool is the only entry or exit to the chamber.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_equipment

    A deck decompression chamber (DDC), or double-lock chamber is a two compartment pressure vessel for human occupation which has sufficient space in the main chamber for two or more occupants, and a forechamber which can allow a person to be pressurised or decompressed while the main chamber remains under constant pressure.

    On June 22, 2012, the Jiaolong submersible set a deep-diving record for state-owned vessels when the three-person sub descended 6,963 meters (22,844 ft) into the Pacific Ocean. [ 7 ] Among the most well-known and longest-in-operation submersibles is the deep-submergence research vessel DSV Alvin , which takes 3 people to depths of up to 4,500 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_support_vessel

    Design of the Nistar-class diving support vessel of the Indian Navy. A diving support vessel is a ship that is used as a floating base for professional diving projects. Basic requirements are the ability to keep station accurately and reliably throughout a diving operation, often in close proximity to drilling or production platforms, for positioning to degrade slowly enough in deteriorating ...

  9. Variable-buoyancy pressure vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-buoyancy_pressure...

    A variable-buoyancy pressure vessel system is a type of rigid buoyancy control device for diving systems that retains a constant volume and varies its density by changing the weight (mass) of the contents, either by moving the ambient fluid into and out of a rigid pressure vessel, or by moving a stored liquid between internal and external variable-volume containers.
