🔍 Key Concepts

• Jack-up MODU hull design and the purpose of void spaces • Difference between buoyancy vs. storage/tank capacity • How enclosed air spaces below the waterline affect a vessel’s ability to float

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to a structure when its lower hull contains sealed, empty spaces while in the water—what physical effect do those spaces create? • Ask yourself: Are these spaces normally used to hold cargo, liquids, or equipment, or are they intentionally left empty for another purpose? • Consider what a jack-up MODU must rely on during transit before the legs are jacked down—what keeps the unit afloat and supported then?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what a void space is typically defined as in marine terminology (is it used for cargo, liquids, or left empty?). • Check whether adding tank capacity or storage would still make it a void space, or change its classification. • Confirm how air-filled enclosed volumes in a hull contribute to the unit’s ability to remain afloat during jacking operations and transit.
