Sea-basing is prehaps not specific enough, I have plenty on that. My focus is around the concepts for MOB (mobile offshore base) and HALSS. These concepts represent some real challenges to naval architects - if not offshore exploration design teams, as it was these firms that also received funding to do some preliminary design work.
Internet, will only take you so far, and most of my key information in these concepts is not internet sourced...so its about opening up an issue to see if anyone can help...prehaps out of the industry or access to other journels I have not seen.
Most interesting part of the MOB is the way modules are put together, and the means to keep these modules level enough for aircraft operations.
I have attached a quick review of some of the MOB's being considered at the preliminary design phase.
