Abstract: Island rescue vessels need to navigate shallow waters and dock at small piers on reefs, so their displacement is usually limited. The arrangement of various rescue equipment within a confined space is challenging, necessitating appropriate trade-offs. By establishing a quantitative assessment method for rescue capabilities, combined with the overall performance and rescue equipment configuration of different design schemes, the rescue capacity of the vessel can be evaluated in the early design phase to ensure it meets mission requirements. This assessment method has been successfully applied in the design of relevant island rescue vessels.

Key words: rescue vessels, rescue capacity, island and reef waters, maritime search and rescue

摘要： 岛礁救援船需要航行于浅水海域并停靠于岛礁小型码头,其排水量通常不大,在有限的空间内布置各类救援设备比较困难,因此需要进行合适的取舍。通过建立一套救援能力定量评估方法,结合各方案总体性能和救援设备配置,就可以在设计之初提前评估救援船的救援能力是否能满足任务需求。该评估方法已经成功应用于相关岛礁救援船的设计之中。
