PRICUS MARINE provides purpose built vessels, operators and logistics solutions for hydrographic and geophysical surveys, research, and commercial interests operating in near shore and open-ocean environments.
The SWATH hull-form is an enabling technology that allows this relatively small craft to have a complete open-ocean surveying capability that is unobtainable in a conventional vessel of a similar size.
AVAILABILITY
Pricus was designed to continue operations through WMO Sea State 4 and survive Sea State 6. Based on National Data Buoy Center records for 2019, the significant wave height in Rhode Island Sound remains at or below Sea State 4 more than 90% of the year.
STABILITY
Her SWATH hull form is inherently stable regardless of vessel speed or swell direction & provides a platform optimized for slow-speed seakeeping. She has four computer-controlled motion control planes to actively stabilize her to only two degrees of roll, even in 10-14 ft seas.
LESS SEA SICKNESS
In Sea State 4, R/V Pricus is designed for a Vertical Acceleration of only 0.04g’srms and Motion Sickness Index (MSI) of 1%rms. Pricus’s Vertical Acceleration is well within the tolerable area of human acceleration tolerance boundaries (the “threshold of malaise” is approximately 0.1 to 0.2g’srms and “intolerable conditions” are 0.20 to 0.60g’srms, depending on wave frequency).
IMPERVIOUS TO DIRECTION OF SEAS
SWATH seakeeping characteristics are far less susceptible to the direction of seas. With conventional vessels, the direction of the seas may force tracks to be laid out in an unfavorable geometry. With a SWATH vessel, the direction of the seas should be immaterial as long as sea states are within designed operating parameters of Sea State 4. This also helps contribute to less sea sickness.
You have invested in top notch talent and equipment...pair them with a platform that will deliver a better deliverable ahead of schedule.
