Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The information contained in NWP 4-01.4, Underway Replenishment, is directed toward preparing both the replenishment and customer ship for a replenishment evolution. Detailed rig make-up, requisite equipment, and standardized procedures are established to serve as specific guidelines for all aspects of replenishment at sea. NWP 4-01.4 has evolved over the years as a direct result of continuing fleet requirements to standardize procedures, furnish rig make-up guidance, and provide continuity in application and use. The highest degree of professional competence in UNREP evolutions is required for their safe and efficient conduct. Each ship shall ensure wide dissemination to all personnel involved in the planning of, supervision of, and participation in UNREP evolutions.

Download or read book Gray Steel and Black Oil written by Thomas Wildenberg and published by US Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gray Steel and Black Oil is the first full-length treatment of the development of the fleet oiler concept in the U.S. Navy. The author, Thomas Wildenberg, authoritatively addresses the logistics of how fleets are able to stay at sea in an operational mode, a long-ignored but extremely important subject. For example, in World War II refueling at sea provided the U.S. Navy with the mobility it needed to accomplish its island-hopping advance toward Japan, as advocated in War Plan Orange. He explains how underway replenishment enabled U.S. carriers to range freely across the Pacific in the first months of the war, and later to remain on station far from their bases for weeks at a time. Today the refueling capability of a navy is as important as ever. With this book Wildenberg charts the concept from the first fleet oilers of World War I onward. He examines the Navy's plans between the wars, documents the experience of World War II, and covers the postwar transition period, Korea, Vietnam, and the Gulf War. Numerous tables on ship design and capabilities, descriptions of ship types, photographs of every class of U.S. Navy fleet oiler, and ship drawings are also included.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the uncertain and changing nature of the U.S. merchant fleet, the U.S. Navy is making a comprehensive reevaluation of its relationship with the merchant marine. As one aspect of the total reevaluation, the Chief of Naval Research asked the Maritime Transportation Research Board to determine the feasibility of resupplying naval vessels at sea from commercial containerships. A formal proposal to undertake the task was submitted to examine the available and projected technology and operational capability of the merchant containership fleet to perform replenishment at sea operations; The merchant containership fleet's capability to meet the operational requirements for replenishment at sea as established by the U.S. Navy; Special problem areas and operational trials of systems that may be within the state-of-the-art; and Additional capabilities and technology, including systems and hardware design projects, that may be required in the next decade for full utilization of containerships in the replenishment system.

Download or read book Using Commercial Tankers and Containerships for Navy Underway Replenishment written by Kathy I. Robinson and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy has been looking at alternatives to building additional support ships. Navy design ships are very capable and very expensive. Commercial design ships could save considerable amounts of money. But the operational differences must be taken into account. The modified commercial ships could be used in two different roles. They could be used for 'wartime augmentation' of existing Navy forces when emergency needs arise. Or the modified commercial ships could be used as full 'peacetime substitutions' for additional Navy support ships. The study concluded that there were deficiencies in the commercial ships which could not be overcome within the guidelines of the study. The modified tanker had less speed and lower transfer times than the Navy AO. The modified containership had severe safety and cargo transfer problems compared with the Navy AE. However, these commercial ships also represented savings of at least 23 percent in 30 year procurement and operating expenses (dollars are discounted at 10 percent over 30 years). The study did not attempt to weigh the deficiencies against the savings.
