ABSTRACT:
A composite laminate panel suitable for building containment vessels, and in particular, suitable for building double hull oil tankers. The laminate has two facing metal layers structurally bonded to a polyurethane elastomer core. The laminate is used in various hull components, such as the hull plates, longitudinal girders, transverse frames and bulkheads. The laminate is used to build the inner hull and the outer hull, and may be used to build the structural supports between the inner and outer hulls. The innermost layer of inner hull contains the ship's cargo. The elastomer core of the inner hull laminate isolates the innermost hull skin from cracks, thereby preventing a loss of cargo such as oil into the environment, when the outer hull is pierced, penetrated or ruptured in an accident or grounding.
