摘要
The decompression system is for use on offshore gravity structures, e.g. exploiting maritime oilfields, it is esp. for use on permeable foundations e.g. of sandy soil, and prevents the build-up of excessive pore-water pressures. Pressure differentials created by the sea-swell are used to control the system. The structure has cellular storage chambers above the foundation and superimposed by a hollow vertical column. A network of drain-pipes communicates with the sea at a level somewhat below that of the lowest wave-trough, and is controlled by a slave -valve. The valve opens when the sea pressure differ from a datum pressure by a specified valve, thus, maintaining foundation pressures below normal hydrostatic pressures. The drainage system inc decompression tubes which are installed beneath the foundation slab. A collector pipe leads from decompression tubes to the sea outlet.
