Abstract: A semisubmersible with a plurality of surface piercing columns, a plurality of pontoons attached to and extending between pairs of adjacent surface piercing columns, a tunnel side formed between a first pair of surface piercing columns, an additional tunnel side formed between a second pair of surface piercing columns, a tunnel floor formed between the tunnel sides. A tunnel opening formed between the tunnel sides for receiving a floating vessel into the tunnel structure, and a main deck secured to the plurality of surface piercing columns. The semisubmersible can be ballasted to an operational depth and deballested to a transit depth.

Abstract: A buoyant structure having a hull, a main deck, an upper frustoconical portion, a lower frustoconical side section, a lower ellipsoidal section and a matching ellipsoidal keel with a tunnel formed within the hull for containing water to an operational depth creating a passageway to locations exterior of the hull and dimensioned to receive a watercraft. The tunnel having a plurality of tunnel sides, a tunnel floor formed between the tunnel sides and a plurality of dynamic movable tendering mechanisms connected to each tunnel side. The dynamic movable tendering mechanisms connected proximate to the operational depth for contacting with at least one side of a watercraft, enabling the tunnel to receive a watercraft securely for loading and unloading while the buoyant structure is at an operational depth on a body of water.

Abstract: A buoyant structure having a hull, a main deck, an upper cylindrical side section extending downwardly from the main deck, an upper frustoconical side section, a cylindrical neck, a lower ellipsoidal section that extends from the cylindrical neck, an ellipsoidal keel and a fin-shaped appendage secured to a lower and an outer portion of the exterior of the ellipsoid keel. The upper frustoconical side section located below the upper cylindrical side section and maintained to be above a water line for a transport depth and partially below the water line for an operational depth of the buoyant structure.
