The bottoms of our oceans are scattered with precious metals: polymetallic nodules in form of small metallic lumps, containing manganese, iron, and other precious elements like cobalt, nickel, platinum and vanadium. A number of renowned companies prepare to collect these so-called polymetallic nodules at great depths (up to 4.5 kilometers deep) with ultramodern Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV). Highrise Design proudly contributed to this venture, being an aluminum specialist. A complete aluminum structure was designed and structurally verified. All relevant design aspects have been incorporated, such as the prevailing water pressure, required corrosion resistance and the required strength and fatigue resistance. Our team delivered a complete design of the aluminum load-bearing structure.
