Five Year Request for East Coast Winch Pool Facility (CY16-20) Year 1

伍兹霍尔海洋研究所提出申请，为东海岸绞盘池的运营提供资金。由于这些系统的购买、维护和运输费用很高，因此对过载设备的投资是一项昂贵的任务。为了不仅确保这些系统可供研究人员用于他们的工作，还为了确保它们得到适当的维护，并在专家的支持下可供整个科学界使用，美国国家科学基金会创建了东海岸温泉池。这个？台球？创建的目的是为科学家提供方便的单点联系，满足他们所有的舷外设备需求以及专业知识，为他们提供满足其独特需求的创造性工程解决方案，同时通过汇集设备供科学界使用来降低成本。2009年，美国国家科学基金会将东海岸绞盘池的运营分配给伍兹霍尔海洋研究所。职责范围包括：？超负荷系统的单点联系？作为绞车使用、维护和工程支持方面的专业知识中心？提供便携式绞车系统以支持海洋研究？提供便携式和船用张力构件缠绕方面的专业知识？系统和操作假脱机设备的人员？保持绞车、缠绕和溢流设备处于最佳状态？如何安排设备的使用？提供运输和搬运物流，以便将设备运送到需要的地方？在现场提供系统设置和测试方面的专业知识？维护、运营和提供联合国后勤服务长期核心系统？维护、操作和提供Jason ROV发射和回收系统自水池形成六年以来，科学家、技术人员和船舶操作员已经认识到水池是专业知识的中心和超载系统的来源，他们期望在执行现场工作的恶劣条件下具有可靠性。该提案寻求资金以满足五个主要目标：1)为工程分析、绞车维护和绞车培训提供专业技术知识；2)维护保持设备运行所需的部件、用品和工具；3)通过工程设计、更新和修改使系统适应特定的科学要求；4)确定科学界的需求并采购必要的新设备。5)为Pool资产的调度、动员、复员、运输和后勤提供资金。

A request is made by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution to fund the operation of the East Coast Winch Pool. The investment in overboarding equipment is an expensive undertaking due to the high cost of purchase, maintenance and shipping of these systems. In an effort to not only ensure that these systems are available to researchers for their work but to also ensure that that they are properly maintained and available to the entire science community with expert support, NSF created the East Coast Winch Pool. This ?pool? was created to offer scientists a convenient single point of contact for all of their overboarding equipment needs as well as the expertise to provide them with creative engineering solutions for their unique requirements while at the same time reducing cost by pooling equipment for use by the scientific community.In 2009 NSF assigned the operation of the East Coast Winch Pool to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The range of responsibilities included:? Single point of contact for overboarding systems? Act as a center of expertise in winch use, maintenance and engineering support? Provide portable winch systems in support of oceanographic research? Provide expertise in tension member spooling for both portable and shipboard? systems and the personnel to operate spooling equipment? Maintain winches, spooling and overboarding equipment in top condition? Schedule the use of equipment? Provide shipping and handling logistics to get equipment to where it is needed? Provide expertise for system setup and testing in the field? Maintain, operate and provide UNOLS Long Core System? Maintain, operate and provide Jason ROV launch and recovery systemSix years since the formation of the pool, scientists, technicians and ship operatorshave come to recognize the pool as a center of expertise and a source of over-boardingsystems with the reliability they expect in the harsh conditions that performing field workoften presents. This proposal seeks the funds to cover five main objectives.1) Provide technical expertise for engineering analysis, winch maintenance, and winch training.2) Maintain the parts, supplies and tools required to keep equipment operating.3) Adapt systems to specific scientific requirements through engineering, updating and modification.4) Identify the needs of the scientific community and procure the necessary new equipment.5) Provide for the scheduling, mobilization, demobilization, shipping, and logistics of Pool assets.
