원유의 발견과 함께 북극의 개발이 활발해저왔고, 지역의 특수한 환경적인 요건으로 인해 시설물의 개발, 설치, 이동, 운용에 많은 어려움을 갖고 있다. 특히 빙산에 의한 극지 해안가의 해저면은 파이고, 손상되고, 변형된다. 북 알라스카의 해저면을 고르지 못하고, 불규칙하게 파이고, 손상된 형태를 보여주고, 특히 빙산의 활동이 활발한 지역과 시기에는 그 손상이 더욱 심하고, 자주 일어난다. 빙산에 의한 해저면의 홈은 빙산 해저 끝이 해저면에 접촉하여 해저 바닥을 파 나갈때 일어나는 현상이다. 빙산의 운동에너지는 해저면을 파 나가는 에너지로 변형되고, 그 힘이 평형하게 될 때까지 빙산의 운동은 계속된다. 빙산에 의한 해저면 손상은 극지 해안가의 해저시설물의 설계, 설치, 운용에 중대한 영향을 끼친다. 그러므로, 해저면 손상의 데이타 분석은 해안의 개발과 시설물의 설치에 큰 도움이 된다. 이 논문에서는 8년간에 걸친 약 십만개가 넘는 데이타를 토대로 알라스카 뷰오포트 해안가의 빙산에 의한 해저면 손상의 통계학적인 연구결과를 보여준다. 또한 각 변수의 최대치와 수심에 따른 변수의 최대 경계선을 추정하였고, 변수들의 상호관계를 연구하였다.

해저면에 설치되 있는 기름 송유관에 손상이 생겨, 송유관 내부에 흐르는 기름이 유출 될경우 엄청난 환경오염 및 재난을 발생시킨다. 해저 송유관 손상에 의한 기름유출 원인은 여러가지 경우에 기인한다. 선박의 바닥이 해저면에 끌려 해저 송유관을 손상시키는 경우, 선박의 엥커에 의해 손상되는 경우, 지진에 의해 좌굴되는 경우, 자유 경간 (Free span)에 의해 좌굴 되는 경우, 송유관 수리 시 사고로 인한 유출, 송유관의 부식에 기인한 유출 등으로 나누어 질 수 있다. 어떠한 경우이든 해저 파이프 손상시, 유출된 기름의 양을 예측하고 그에 따른 적절한 대비가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 1차 유출 및 2차 유출을 정의하여 각각의 경우에 유출량 해석 이론을 소개하였다. 또한 이 이론을 실제 경우에 응용하여 해저 송유관 손상에 의해 방출되는 기름량을 손상면적에 따라 계산하였고, 최대 유출량 산출 법을 적용하여 손상 위치에 따른 부분별 유출량 계산법을 소개하였다.

본 보고는 육지로부터 1.1km 떨어진 하섬에 전력, 통신, 제어케이블을 각각 포설공사한 결과이다. 먼저 포설공사전에 Route의 유속과 수심, 해저면등의 조건을 각각 측정하였다. 하섬의 부하를 계산하고 케이블의 전압 및 허용전류등을 계산한후에 해저 직매에 적합한 구조 및 수밀특성을 향상시키는 설계를 하였다. 또한, 시이즈의 표면은 포설시에 손상을 줄이기 위하여 Smooth형으로 제조하였다. 포설은 전력, 제어, 통신케이블을 동시에 직매식으로 최단시간내에 수행하는 공사를 하였으며, 케이블의 진단은 직류전압법에 의한 전류특성으로 평가하였다.

A submarine power cable is a transmission cable for carrying electric power below the surface of the water. Recently, submarine cables transfer power from offshore renewable energy schemes to shore, e.g. wind, wave and tidal systems, and these cables are either buried in the seabed or lie on the ocean floor, depending on their location. Since these power cables are used in the extreme environments, they are made to withstand in harsh conditions and temperatures, and strong currents. However, undersea conditions are severe enough to cause all sorts of damage to offshore cables, these conditions result in cable faults that disrupt power transmission. In this paper, we explore the design criteria for such cables and the procedures and challenges of installation, and cable transfer splicing system. The specification of submarine cable designed with 3 circuits of 154kV which is composed of the existing single circuit and new double circuits, and power capacity of 100MVA per cable line. The determination of new submarine cable burial depth and cable arrangement method with both existing and new cables are studied. We have calculated the permission values of cable power capacity for underground route, the values show the over 100MW per cable line.

During an earthquake, there are three main components of excitation : horizontal excitation of the ground, vertical excitation of the pile due to superstructure feedback produced by vertical excitation of the ground, and the seawater excitation induced by the vertical ground shaking, that is, "the seaquake." These excitations could have effects on the soil plugs in open-ended pie piles installed at offshore sites. In this study, seaquake excitation induced by the vertical ground shaking was simulated by pulsing the water pressure at the seabed. During a seaquake, due to the induced excess porewater pressure and pressure gradients in the soil, the capacity of open-ended pipe piles installed in a simulated sea depth of greate than 220 m was reduced serevely and the soil plugging resistance was degraded by more than 80% The soil plug was failed because of eh upward seepage forces that developed in the soil plug due to excess pore water pressure produced in the bottom of the soil plug during the seaquake, The compressive capacity of ar open-ended pile in a simulated sea depth of less than 220 m was reduced only by about 10% and the soil plug resistance was degraded by less than 5%.s than 5%.

This study is on the corrosion of iron objects caused by sulfides in undersea environment. The corrosion state of objects in seawater and their damage state after underwater and left in highly humid air were studied. The samples of this study were four iron objects which had been taken out from undersea mud layer located in Taean Mado, Chungcheongnamdo. SEM-EDS and XRD analyse on the objects to check whether they have sulfides or not. The result of analysis suggested that the major component of corrosion product generated in undersea deposit soil is sulfur(S) and iron sulfide(FeS) is formed as sulfide. However, there was no clear corrosion on the surface of objects which was exposed to sea water because of the impact of concretion which covered the surface. In order to check the damage status of iron objects after they had been taken out of sea water, exposure tests in high humidity environment and dehumidified environment were done on the corrosion products. The result of the test suggested that the oxidization of iron sulfide corrosion product makes iron sulfate ($FeSO_4$) and sulfuric acid ($H_2SO_4$) and they can cause secondary corrosion of iron objects. Therefore, it is believed that the iron sulfide corrosion product of iron objects taken out from underwater environment should be removed by all means and the keeping environment of the iron objects should also maintain dehumidified state.

Because offshore plant industry needs to design, deploy and operate much of equipment especially, the latest trend shows the installation of production facilities is augmented in the subsea. The installed facilities are very difficult to be repaired or changed because they are located in the subsea. For solving these problems, both the directly related information of the production like the optimal number, position and depth of wells and the distribution for effective operation and safety of equipment of subsea should be considered at the preliminary stage of FEED (Front End Engineering Design). The marine exploration is introduced in this paper for providing the fundamental technology to answer the questions related to above considering points. First, some kinds of the offshore plant facilities are enumerated and aims of marine exploration for the offshore oil/gas development are summarized. In addition to it, the main roles of marine survey, in the step of designing and installing offshore oil-gas plant, development are briefly listed. And then foreign examples are shown to help the reader's understand. This paper is hoped to be helpful for understanding the marine exploration that can be applied to offshore oil/gas plant and to be contributed to developing the domestic techniques in this field for the future.

Sunken ships cause damage to the environment due to the dispersal of fuel oil and harmful cargo goods in the hull. Since the sunken ship is mostly flooded by the seabed, it tends to be in a relatively stable condition. However, the heavy body, together with the load of remaining goods in the cargo hold, the constant contact with the seabed, and ocean currents and tidal waves, can affect dispersal of residual fuel oils out of the sunken ship. Corrosion of the sunken ship starts upon sinking, decreasing the thickness of the hull structure and sub-materials. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the structural stability against the potential breakdown of the sunken ship. Whilst evaluating the danger of the sunken ship, this result should be reflected in 'the possible discharge'. This study was undertaken to suggest a procedure for a step by step evaluation to assess the structural stability a sunken ship. The structural stability assessment to estimate the collapsibility of the hull was structure targeted at the sunken ship 'No. 7 HaeSung', which was classified as the prime example for the intensive management of sunken ships. This study was undertaken to suggest a procedure for a step by step evaluation to assess the structural stability a sunken ship and to propose a method to conduct a structural safety assessment that estimates the collapsibility of the hull by targeting the sunken ship 'No. 7 HaeSung',which was classified as the prime example for the intensive management of sunken ships. The collapsibility of the hull structure was estimated Based on the damage size of the hull structure, and the corrosion rate of the hull structure and sub-materials due to the seawater after sinking. It was confirmed that there was a low possibility of the total destruction of the hull structure at the current time. However, there is a high possibility in the potential failure of the hull structure due to increased rate of corrosion thereafter. Therefore, we believe continuous study on influence of corrosion and marine environment change to sunken ship's structural safety is necessary.
