Talk:Petrobras 36

message: The quote seems ridiculous in its assertions and suspicious in that the footnote does not point to the source but instead an article on quality control for vaccine problems at Chiron.  Is there a citation for this quote? (Reply: The footnote points to a page where the quote is listed at the very bottom.)

The quote is on the slides at the end. This is a widely quoted piece and I doubt it is wrong.--Rjstott 03:42, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

message: P36 had a number of 'boxes' on the pontoons and on the columns.  The pontoon boxes were added in Canada to give more submerged buoyancy to allow extra load on the platform.  They did this, but reduced stability at any given draught by the effect of the increased submerged volume.  This is because the measure of returning lever has the form BM = I/V where I is the second moment of waterplane area and V is the submerged volume.
As built, 'Spirit of Columbus' - later P36 - had so-called stability boxes on the columns.  These increased submerged volume  but because they continued above the waterline they acted to increase stability (at all angles until the tops were submerged).  The mooring fairleads were mounted on the lower part of these boxes so they appear to have been called 'fairlead boxes'.
Also during modification in Canada the 'stability boxes' on the columns were extended around the columns and upwards.  Unfortunately they were'nt extended upwards sufficiently to provide the stability needed to counter the flooding of the pump room and other column spaces that sank her.

message: The Petrobras P36 accident, which resulted in the loss of the vessel and the lives of 11 crew, is appalingly reported on this site as an accident caused by Quality Assurance/Quality Control failures.
The article implys that QA/QC failures occured, presumably during conversion of the vessel from the Spirit of Columbus (sister vessel to the Jake Bates, later used in the accident investigation) to the Petrobras P36.
However, a relatively simple search of the Petrobras site will uncover the following link.

This site contains the preliminary and final reports on the accident, as well as the preliminary and final DNV Verification reports for the investigation.  These are also at the direct links below.

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
