Chapter 30 Super Difficult Salvage
When the commander heard Guan Hao say that the salvage had been found, his tightly knit brows finally relaxed.
Commander Sun Zhiyong excitedly shook Guan Hao's hand: "Little comrade, good job!" ”
Pete, a Saxon on the side, also hugged Guan Hao, and said with excitement and apologies: "Hao, I'm sorry, I sincerely apologize to you and your partners for my prejudice!" ”
"You are the most professional and conscientious dive team I have ever met, salute to you!"
"Thank you!" Guan Hao held Pete's hand.
.........
"Commander, the underwater situation is changing rapidly, and the mark made by Guan Hao will soon be washed away by the ocean current, and it will be even more difficult to search at that time, and now the top priority is to come up with a salvage plan as soon as possible." Captain Li Wenming said urgently.
"Yes, the sediment layer on the bottom of the sea is too thick, and the undercurrent is surging, and it will be submerged quickly. Time is of the essence. ”
"Then without further ado, I feel that the salvage plan will be discussed, and all units must strictly and fully support the rescue and salvage team." The commander firmly announced to everyone.
At this time, the staff had already taken out the plane design of the positioning unit.
Everyone started looking into it.
At present, the oil drilling platform is still in the stage of sea trials, the underwater engineering personnel are still in the state of formation and training, and it will take time for the diving engineering personnel to take charge on their own.
Obviously, the salvage work can only be completed by the rescue team of Suicheng Diving School.
Under normal circumstances, oil rigs need to be equipped with deep-sea pressure chambers, and underwater operations of more than 100 meters should be saturated diving. Because of the lack of experience, the platform headquarters was caught off guard in the face of this sudden typhoon accident.
It is believed that after this accident, the platform command should step up the construction of underwater engineering personnel and emergency equipment!
Time is slowly passing, after many discussions and analysis, the salvage plan is: the rescue team can dive the remaining three, Li Wenming, Song Yuanzheng and Guan Hao all sent out to dive to the bottom of the sea, Li Wenming and Song Yuanzheng have rich experience in underwater welding, by the two of them first dive welding and hoisting gripper, and so the gripper welding is completed, and then Guan Hao with the crane hook steel rope on the two platforms dive to install the hook, and so on after Guan Hao issued a lifting instruction, the crane began to start and salvage.
Li Wenming and Song Yuanzheng only need to dive back to the platform after the welding is completed, while Guan Hao needs to pay close attention to the starting and adjusting of the positioning unit and dive out of the water with the salvage objects.
Comparatively speaking, Guan Hao's mission is more challenging and dangerous.
Fortunately, the foreign side was equipped with underwater welding equipment, and Li Wenming and Song Yuanzheng dived to the bottom of the sea along Guan Hao's safety rope, and the two of them each welded one end.
The whole welding work is carried out very smoothly, after all, the positioning unit weighs 2 tons, and the tensile force to be borne is not small, and the welding should be careful and firm, so it is necessary to ensure that the hoisting is successful.
The welding work took a total of 20 minutes, and Li Wenming checked the welding part twice, and after confirming that it was correct, he gave the platform a signal of success.
After these scheduled tasks are completed, they will continue to wait for Guan Hao to dive with the grappling hook steel rope.
During the more than 20 minutes that Li Wenming and Song Yuanzheng were diving, Guan Hao carefully checked his equipment, and this time in order to ensure that he had enough time to dive, Guan Hao also carried two cans of gas cylinders.
In this way, coupled with the weight of their own equipment and two steel cables with a diameter of more than 40 cm, the weight of Guan Hao has exceeded the standard very seriously.
The underwater signal has been received, and it's time for Guan Hao to play.
Guan Hao looked at the time on the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms on his wrist, which happened to be 22:30. He expects the dive to take more than an hour.
Out of instinct, Guan Hao also looked at Cao Wan, who had been beside her, and also looked at the red strap on her wrist Blancpain Fifty Fathoms.
"Wan'er, don't worry about me! Wait until I get back! ”
Cao Wan looked at Guan Hao affectionately, she had already burst into tears, and at this time, the two of them just looked at each other silently, and any language was superfluous.
"Xiaoguan, good job! Come on! We're waiting for you to come back! ”
"Off, come on!"
…….
Guan Hao was sent off the diving rig like Lie.
Isn't it just an hour of diving? How to make it like life and death.
Guan Hao took his equipment and two hooks and slowly dived.
This type of scuba diving with high weights and no professional protection is very dangerous.
It took 19 minutes to drag two wrist-thick steel ropes to the salvage object, and after a brief exchange between the three of them, they began to assemble the hooks.
After the three of them installed the hook, Li Wenming and Song Yuanzheng had not much oxygen left, and they had to dive to the platform.
The next link can only be faced by Guan Hao alone.
After checking that the hook is correct, he will issue a command to dive.
This is the most dangerous time, as the rope will break if the gripper is not firmly unhooked or welded, and the rope may sweep to the diver.
Once the tight steel cable breaks, the kinetic energy of the moment can kill the diver immediately.
Fortunately, everything is normal, watching the positioning unit slowly rise, Guan Hao's nervous heart can be regarded as slowly letting go, but now is not the time to completely relax, the underwater situation is changing rapidly, the visibility is almost zero, and any situation can occur, so you can't take it lightly.
Lifting a 2-ton object from a depth of more than 120 meters is faster than a human floating, and Guan Hao can only dive with the salvage at the same speed.
For a full 70 minutes, Guan Hao and the salvage came out of the water together.
The platform was crowded with people, and everyone spontaneously applauded Guan Hao, and many young people cheered,
This thunderous applause and cheers should belong to Guan Hao, and also to the heroic rescue team of Suicheng Diving School.
"Xiaoguan, great, I thank you on behalf of Nanyou No. 3! Are you interested in working in our offshore oil sector? ”
"Thank you, Commander! I'm just a sophomore in high school, and I'll have to wait until I'm done in college. Guan Hao grimaced and said with some embarrassment.
"Of course, Commander, if you want to thank our school rescue team for this rescue, please reward the other members of our team, right? Our captain, vice-captain, and two coaches who need medical treatment. They need help and rewards more than I do. ”
"Xiaoguan, you're good! Don't be greedy for merit, do it in advance and think about the organization. What a seedling! ”
"Commander, you're too famous! I also have a suggestion, our oil drilling platform has just been built, everything is difficult at the beginning, this underwater construction project should be a lot, you see otherwise, we CNOOC and our Suicheng Diving School to set up a cooperation project, and the training of underwater projects of CNOOC will be done by our school in the future. Graduates of our school can also be recommended to CNOOC on a merit-based basis. In this way, everyone can be regarded as getting what they need, a real win-win situation! ”
"Haha! That's a good offer! I see that you are thinking about your school everywhere! I promise you that I will immediately arrange to sign a strategic cooperation agreement with your school. ”
"Do you have any personal requirements? Now even though mentioned? As long as it doesn't violate the principles, I can promise you. ”
"Thank you, Commander! I personally have nothing to ask for. ”
