A double hullis a shiphulldesign andconstruction method where the bottom
and sides of the ship have two completelayers of watertight hull surface:
one outer layer forming the normal hull ofthe ship, and a second inner hull which issome distance inboard, typically by a fewfeet, which forms a redundant barrier to
seawater in case the outer hull is damagedand leaks.

The space between the two hulls isalways used for storage of fuel or
ballast water.Double hulls' ability to prevent or reduce oilspills led to their being standardized for othertypes of ships including oil tankersby the
nternational !onvention for the "revention of"ollution from #hipsor $A%"& !onvention.

a double hull. A double hull is essentially ahull within a hull. The cargo is carriedinside the inner hull. The space between
the inner and outer hull varies by ship sizefrom 9 to 68 feet or more. f an accidentshould occur i.e., grounding, stranding,

be encountered, a severe wave environment is used forthe design assessment. The rule reuirements are basedon a ship trading in the =orth Atlantic wave environmentfor its entire design life.
The e2ects of wind and current on the structure areconsidered to be negligible and hence are not e)plicitlyincluded.The %ules do not include the e2ects of ice.

O'eratons
Double hull tankers have two distinct operationaldisadvantages in terms of stability over single hulltankers.
/irst, for a given depth of ship, adding a double
bottom raises the ship>s centre of gravity andthereby reduces the ship>s reserves of stability.
#econd, free surface e2ects in cargo and ballasttanks during cargo operations may cause double
hull tankers to lose stability and su2er an angle ofloll, particularly if the design does not incorporatea longitudinal centre line bulkhead subdividingthe cargo space.

Double hull tankers in generalgive improved cargo out turns
over single hull ships. Thesmoother internal tank surfaces
coupled with pump suctionsrecessed into wells in thedouble bottom make cargodischarge and tank washingmuch easier, giving an overall
reduction in cargo residue

+onstru#ton
The con1ned spaces of double hull ballast tanks,whether sides or bottom, are far morerestrictive to work in than the comparativelyspacious ballast tanks of the single hull tanker
The double sides and double bottom form
natural three0dimensional rigid building blocks,less susceptible to deformation than thepredominantly two0dimensional components ofthe single hull ship.

Salvage
f a double hull tanker should run aground andrupture the outside shell, the available damagestatistics suggest that the inner hull will, in mostcases, not be breached
Damage to an '' shaped double bottom ballast
tank on the other hand would cause Looding onone side resulting in a considerable list shouldthe ship not come to rest on supporting ground,but remain free0Loating.

Desgn
Double hull tankers operate with global stresslevels some ?8M higher than those with singlehulls because of the uniform distribution of cargoand ballast over the length of the ship.
The conseuence is most likely to be smallfatigue fractures in early years of service,especially in larger double hull tankers, unlessgreat care is e)ercised in the design detail andsupervision of workmanship during construction.

Stablty
The free surface e2ect is the degradation in transversestability which occurs when there are slack surfaces
Ghen combined with the e2ect of the double bottom
ballast tanks that e2ectively raise the centre of gravityof the cargo, there is a conseuential large reduction inintact stability
much more care needs to be taken in distributing thecargo on board a double hull than single hull tanker
task is helped by the use of on board computers

(ase of access for close up structuralinspection is an issue for all oiltankers, especially in the case of thecomparatively large single hulltanker cargo and ballast tanks. %afts,
