    1.0 INTRODUCTIONThe Navy is engaged in a program to define and demonstrateDeployable Waterfronts (DWF) that will provide world widelogistics support fo r our forces in the Continental UnitedStates (CONUS) and overseas. The DW F concept consists ofrapidly deployed, floating modules to provide pier andlogistics facilities. The DW F must be transported to the siteof operation and disassembled and moved to other sites ifrequired. Towing the Deployable Waterfronts to the site ofoperation has been proposed; however, the wet tow option hasnot been evaluated and the impact on the DW F design is notknown. The objectives of this evaluation are to review thewet tow operational requirements and assess their impact onthe DW F design.

    1.1 BackgroundThe five specified scenarios for utilizing the DWF , takenfrom References 1, 2 and 3 are:

    "* U.S. Navy port"* Developed overseas port"* Advanced logistics support base"* Advanced Base"* Pre-positioned material base

    In all scenarios, the port must be prepared for rapiddeployment to the site of operation.The modules required to construct a required 1200 ftwaterfront consists of 4-300 ft or 3-400 ft modules.Nominal characteristics are:

    * Length - 300 ft Beam - i00ft Draft - 7 ft

    Displacement - 5000 LTGeneral design criteria fo r the DW F are presented inReferences 1, 2, and 3. These references provide designrequirements fo r D W F operation after installation.Environmental conditions are presented for survival ofthe DWF design after it is installed:

    * Wave height - 5 ft* Wave period - 6 sec* Wind - 85 knots Current - 4 knots

    A test plan has been developed (4) to demonstrate the DWFconcept. The modules chosen are 2-400 ft deck cargobarges, available commercially. The modules are to betowed to the site using a 9000 hp tugboat. A coastal towroute is planned from the U.S. west coast to Alaska or toBaha, Mexico, for set up and demonstration.

    1.2 Summary

    The DW F wet tow evaluation included a review ofoperational requirements, survey of towing assets andtechniques and evaluation of the DW F designconfiguration.

    A review of the current DW F operational requirements fordeployment is presented to characterize the criticalparameters of the tow environment and duration requiredto conduct a concept level evaluation of the DW F design.Government and commercial requirements used for similarwet tows are identified.Military and commercial assets available fo r the wet to ware presented to highlight the limitations, availabilityand arrangements required to make these assets available

    to the government. This includes a summary of assetcapabilities and limitations relative to the wet towrequirements. Approaches and techniques used for wettows of similar requirements are presented and theirimpact on the DW F design is considered. Design criteriaresulting from the applicable towing techniques areidentified.

    A concept level evaluation of the baseline configurationis presented to assess performance in light of theoperational requirements and assets identified.Hydrodynamic and seakeeping characteristics of thebaseline configuration are evaluated. A parametricanalyses is presented of alternatives and modificationsrequired to achieve the operational requirements wheredeficiencies exist. Design criteria required toimplement the modifications are recommended. Criteriaa-Mresses arrangement, hydrodynamic, seakeeping andstructural implications of the wet tow.The following report presents the results of the DWFevaluation followed by conclusions and reccrnrendations todevelop technologies required to support continueddevelopment and design of the DWF.

    2.0 WET TO W OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTSThe transport time frame (speed) and environmental conditionsexpected along the route are critical parameters required toassess the DWF design requirements. The DWF requirementsdocuments were reviewed to identify the critical parameters.2.1 Tow Speed

    Review of the requirements documents (References 1, 2 and3) do not specify a transport time frame; therefore, nospeed requirements fo r the tow can be inferred. A reviewof Navy and commercial practice does indicate the towingspeeds attainable. Also, the DW F heavy lift transportprovides a speed for comparative purposes.The Navy towing ships (described later) routinely towbarges of similar dimensions to the DW F at 6 to 10 knots.Reference 5 provides an example of a 300 ft x 80 ft x 10ft housing barge tow at 10 knots using a TATF.Commercial towing speeds range from 6 to 8 knots.References 6 and 7 provide examples of drilling jacketsbeing transported on offshore barges as deck cargo. TheDW F heavy lift transport is capable of 12 knots averagespeed as described in Reference 8.Tow speed potential depends on barge characteristics, tugpower, size of tow hawser, tow winch, tow gear, andweather expected along the route. These factors areexamined below to determine the feasibility of towing theDWF at speeds comparable to Navy or commercial practice.

    2.2 Environmental Conditions

    The expected environmental conditions influence the sizeof tug required, tow speed and DW F design. Navy practicerelies on the Fleet Numerical Weather Center fo r routehistorical data and forecasts prior to the tow. Point-to-point towing of ocean going barges is routine incommercial practice and environmental criteria arepresented by Det Norske Veritas (9) and Noble Denton (10)for maintaining headway during bad weather encounteredduring ocean towing. Sophisticated route analysis isrequired for special non-routine transports where cargois carried on transport barges and ships. Tow routeanalyses are performed fo r towing offshore drillingjackets to the site of installation as done in the recentexample presented by Exxon (11). Wijsmuller (8)performed a route analysis fo r the DW F heavy lifttransport. Wet tows of deck cargo barges are routineand, if designed as ocean going barges, the commercialcriteria provide adequate levels of safety fo r wet tows.

    The environmental criteria and route analysis used forDW F transport study are summarized in Table 2-1. Theenvironmental criteria presented in Table 2-1 fo r oceantowing are more severe than the design re4uirements forsurvival when deployed on site as presented above fromReferences 1,2 and 3. The DW F will not be suitable forocean towing if designed according to the on sitesurvival requirements. Design requirements presented inReferences 1,2 and 3 should include requirements for wettow and heavy lift transports. The transportrequirements fo r deployment, redeployment and survival onsite are not mutually exclusive. If the design

    3.0 TO W ASSETS AND TECHNIQUESCandidate towing assets and techniques used to tow th e DWF arepresented. The assets include Navy towing ships (fleet tugs)and commercial tugs available for charter to th e Navy.

    3.1 Towing AssetsThe Navy and MSC operate a number of ocean going tugboatsthat are used fo r salvage and ocean towing. Navy tugs(ships) perform multi-scenario towing and specialprojects. Fleet or Task Force standby duty and rescuetowing services as well as point-to-point tows aregenerally assigned to the Fleet Tug (ATF) and the RescueSalvage Ship (ARS) and the Salvage Tug (ATS) classes.The MSC-operates Fleet Tugs (T-ATF) that also performthese tasks. These Navy tugs are designed for salvageand ocean towing missions. They have towing winches andmachines specifically designed fo r ocean tows.Characteristics of these tugs are shown in Table 3-1.Tow line pull characteristics for Navy tugs are shown inAppendix A.The Navy routinely engages in charter of commercialtugboats fo r point-to-point ocean towing. There areliterally hundreds of tugs available for hire throughoutthe world. Examples of those used by the Navy for towingare summarized in Table 3-2. The commercial tugboatsare optimized beautifully fo r point-to-point towing. Towline pull characteristics fo r commercial tugs arepresented in Appendix A.

    Discussions with commercial towing companies confirm theavailability of tugboats on quick response and long termcharter arrangements.Normally, to obtain a commercial tow, the tow plannerwill request the tow from the appropriate NavyOperational Surface Force Commander who will arrange fora U.S. Navy or MSC tow. If neither is available, the towshould be arranged through the local supply agent.The Navy has harbor tugs, commonly referred to as yardtugs (YTB), used for berthing ships. The YTBs are usedat major naval bases, overseas operating bases andshipyards. The YTBs would be useful in setting up theDW F modules where DW F facilities are deployed in CONUSand where existing pier facilities are damaged. However,transporting the YTBs to the site of DW F operation is alogistics effort in itself. Preliminary work has beenconducted to solve this logistics effort fo r the heavylift ship transport option (Reference 12).The towing tugs described earlier, while not designed forharbor work, are capable of maneuvering the DW F modulesinto position. Most towing tugs have twin screws and bow"thrusters that will provide sufficient maneuverabilitywhen DW F modules are towed close in or in breasted tows.

    3.2 Towing TechniquesSelection of the tow rig is best if based on similar towoperations and needs of the particular tow. Towingtechniques fo r barges similar to the DW F are wellestablished as indicated in References 5, 13 and 14.

    Example tow rigs are shown in Figures 3-1, 3-2 and 3-3from Reference 5. Generally, the Christmas tree,Honolulu and Tandem rigs are used fo r Navy and commercialtows of multiple barges.Hardware required fo r towing DW F modules includes padeyesat both forward corners and bitts in the center fo r aretrieving line. Additional bitts and chocks must belocated along the sides and stern of the DW F fortransiting the Panama Canal and towing and maneuveringclose in. Panama chock requirements for barges between300 ft and 400 ft include fairleads and bitts that mustbe located between 40 ft and 100 ft from the bow andbetween 50 ft and 110 ft from the stern. Typical decklayout for an ocean going barge is shown in Figure 3-4.Ocean going barges must also have navigational lights andbatteries; however, these items do not have a significantimpact on DW F design. The presence of a riding crewincreases the requirements for safety considerations suchas fire fighting and lifesaving equipment in addition toriding crew accommodations. Generally, riding crews arenot required fo r the DWF tow nor are they desirablebecause the additional requirements and unnecessary cost.

    After the tow plan is completed with all hardwareidentified, the barge is thoroughly surveyed forsuitability of towing prior to acceptance of the tow bythe towing master.

    4.0 DW F DESIGN EVALUATIONThe nominal DWF design configuration described above is inearly stages of development. The basic configuration has notbeen evaluated for suitability for ocean towing in light ofthe tow requirements, assets and techniques identified above.The evaluation presented here includes a review of hullproportions, arrangement, hydrodynamics, structure andseakeeping considerations.

    4.1 Hull ProportionsThe DW F configuration is within range of hull parameterstypical ocean going barges. Table 4-1 presents charac-teristics of ocean going barges published in the openliterature (References 6, 15 and 16). The length to beamratio for the 300 ft DW F is 3: however, 4 or more is morecommon. DW F beam should be no greater than 106 ft topermit use of the Panama Canal. Draft of 7 ft is light;however, seakeeping analysis is presented to evaluate theseakeeping and slamming characteristics of this hullform. The DW F freeboard is 18ft, more than adequate tokeep cargo and deck structure dry. Skegs are often addedto barges to improve the directional stability duringtowing. Generally, deck cargo barges used fo r offshoretransports have a single skeg or none at all.Directional stability of barges without skegs is achievedby trimming the barge by the stern approximately onepercent.

    4.2 Arrangement

    Arrangement of the deck and interior structure andmachinery on DWF must be centered about the bargemidships fo r proper trim. Space is required for towinghardware shown in Figures 3-1 and 3-4. Deck space mustbe allocated fo r chocks, tow pads and fairleads. Thehardware does not require a significant amount of deckarea; however, deck area should be provided for handlinglines and tow gear.

    4.3 HydrodynamicsDW F hulls are currently configured as box shaped moduleswith square bow, sides and stern. This shape will beunsuitable fo r long distance wet towing because thehydrodynamic resistance is significant. The tow speedwill be less than four knots and fuel consumption will beunnecessarily high. Shallow draft barges have been builtwith raked bows and square sterns but they are used forshort distance tows. Generally, ocean going barges haveraked ends at the bow and stern, as shown in Figure 3-4,if they are used for distance towing. This configurationhas 20% less resistance than the square stern barges.Table 4-2 presents the relative resistance of differentbarge hull forms. As indicated above, the mostsignificant reduction in resistance is achieved usingraked ends. Minor adjustments are possible withrelatively little reduction in resistance. Ship shapehulls were used many years ago when tugboat engine powerwas relatively low and hull resistance even morecrit ical; however, with newer, higher powered tugboatsavailable, barges with raked ends provide the requiredresistance characteristics as described next.

    The resistance and towing speed of a typical DW F modulewith raked ends is estimated using an approach forcommercial barges described in References 17 and 18 andthen compared to commercial towing assets. The approachpresented in Reference 5 is used to estimate bargeresistance for comparison to Navy towing assets. The twoapproaches are fundamentally the same and produce similarresults; however, they are not interchangeable. Thecalculations are presented in Appendix A.

    The resistance calculations indicate DW F module towspeeds range between 6 and 8.5 knots with 10 knotspossible. Reference 5 presents an example where aberthing barge with dimensions similar to the DW F istowed at 10 knots by a TATF.Two scenarios were developed to illustrate the time framerequired to transport the DW F by wet tow:

    1) From Norfolk to Southeast Asia through thePanama Canal,

    2) Pre-position the DW F in Diego Garcia and havethe tug transit free route and pick up the DWFfor tow to the mideast.

    The calculations for the route analysis are presented inAppendix A. Results of the analysis are shown in Table4-3. The tow duration for each scenario is reasonablegiven the assets identified above.To i l lustrate the difference on stern shape fo r thescenarios above, a 20% increase in resistance will slowthe tow to 5 knots and require 14 more days and 166,000more gallons of fuel. This increase is significantgiven the modest cost required to provide raked ends.

    A 400ft long by 100ft wide DWF module with a 7ft draftwas analyzed as part of the hydrodynamic evaluation.With all else equal, no increase in resistance resulted.The effects of reducing wave making and increasingfrictional resistance offset each other.The hydrodynamic evaluation and results presented inTable 4-3 indicates that up to three DWF modules withraked ends can be towed at reasonable speeds. If four ormore modules are to be towed, multiple tows will berequired. Alternatively, barge train ocean towingtechnology should be reviewed for applicability to theDWF wet tow.

    4.4 Structural ConsiderationsThe DW F modules must be designed to withstand the rigorsof ocean towing. Generally, ocean going barges are builtto commercial standards such as ABS rules fo r offshorebarges (19). ABS rules require .Sin bottom plating on a300ft barge. For comparison, ABS rules fo r inland barges(20) require .475in bottom plating fo r barges 300ft inlength. Navy standards (Ref. 5) recommend .475in bottomplating. As can be seen from the examples given, littleis saved by designing the DW F with reduced scantlingsbecause it is intended to operate in a limited survivalcondition. The supporting structural calculations arepresented in Appendix B.

    4.5 SeakeepingSeakeeping characteristics of the DWF are reviewed wherethey influence DWF design.

    Sophisticated seakeeping analyses are often performed fortowing large cargo (e.g., offshore drilling jackets) asdescribed in References 21 and 22 and in Reference 8 whenthe DW F is transported as deck cargo. Using the routedata from these sources (presented in Table 2-1), apreliminary seakeeping analysis was performed todetermine suitability of the platform motions and datafo r designing the DWF . Seakeeping calculations wereperformed using SHIPMO-PC seakeeping program described inReference 23. SHIPMO-PC is comparable to the Navy's ShipMotions Program (SMP). Although the DW F proportionsfall outside of the parameters considered in thedevelopment of strip theory programs, they have been usedwith success by others for predicting barge motions foroffshore rig t ransports . The parametersinvestigated are presented in Table 4-4.Results of the seakeeping analysis is presented inAppendix C. The seakeeping results are summarized inTable 4-5. Data fo r motion predictions and model testsof barges fromReference 24 indicates the results of theseakeeping calculations presented here are reasonable.However, a validation effort would be useful fo r futureDW F design efforts. The results are within acceptableranges of requirements for wet tows provided in Reference7 with the possible exception of slamming character-istics. Shallow draft barges have a tendency to slam athigher speeds; however, if considered in DW F design, noadverse affects result. A ballasting capability (e.g.tanks that are filled prior to departure and pumped uponarrival using pumps on the tug or portable pumps) may beworth consideration to increase draft and reduceslamming.

    5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONSEnvironmental design criteria presented in the DWFrequirements (References 1,2 and 3) do not address the wettow. The DW F will be unsuitable for ocean towing if designedusing the environmental conditions fo r on s.ite operation.Accordingly, the DW F design requirements should be reviewedand modified if the DW F wet tow option is to be pursued.Towing assets are available to tow the DW F modules. The DWFmodules should have raked ends to achieve reasonable towingspeeds of 8-10 knots with one to three modules in one tow.Wet tows of four DW F modules will require special hullmodifications to reduce resistance. Alternatively, bargetrain towing techniques should be investigated if it isdesirable to tow four modules using one tugboat.

    DW F hull parameters of 300ft in length by 100ft wide aresuitable for ocean towing; however, a ballasting capability isrecommended to increase draft and reduce bottom slamming. Theuse of strip theory motion programs should be validated forDW F proportion modules.Commercial structural design criteria for ocean going bargesor the Navy equivalent should be used if the DW F is to operateat sites other than inland waterways.
