Ship Operations

9626754理发师杜克大学将不会在1996年经营哈特拉斯角的R/V。该船将处于搁置状态。哈特拉斯号是一艘135英尺高的通用科考船，建造于1981年。这艘船由美国国家科学基金会所有，由杜克大学运营。这艘船计划在1996年进行一次非常轻的航行。为了提高船队的效率，原定在哈特拉斯的几天改用了其他船只。哈特拉一家现在已经到了中年，应该进行中年升级了。在停机期内，操作员将开始工程和中年改装。哈特拉斯号是美国国家科学基金会用于支持海洋科学研究的船队的一部分。大多数海洋工程需要在船舶上永久安装高度专业化的设备，因此需要专用船舶。这些船只的运作模式与普通货船/渔船不同。因此，NSF支持各种专门用于海洋研究的船只的运营，这些船只由全国各地的大学和机构运营。

9626754 BARBER Duke University will not operate the R/V CAPE HATTERAS in 1996. The vessel will be in lay-up status. The HATTERAS is a 135' general purpose research vessel constructed in 1981. The ship is owned by the National Science Foundation and operated by Duke University. The vessel had a very light scheduled for 1996. For greater efficiency of the fleet the few days that were scheduled on Hatteras were switched to other vessels. The Hatteras is now at mid-life and is due for a mid-life upgrade. During the lay-up period the operator will start the engineering and mid-life refit. The HATTERAS is part of a fleet of ships used by the National Science Foundation in support of marine science research. Most oceanographic projects require highly specialized equipment be permanently installed on the vessel, thus the necessity for specialized ships. These vessels do not operate in the same mode as general cargo/fishing vessels. As a result, NSF supports the operation of a variety of ships specifically dedicated to oceanographic research that are operated by universities and institutions around the country.
