Various types of propulsion equipment were studied for positioning and main propulsion service. It was concluded that since the propulsion loads for positioning would be variable and the loads for main propulsion intermittent, the advantages of direct current equipment should be used. Since a large amount of DC traction equipment was already required for drilling service it was logical to use the same type of equipment for propulsion and thus provide additional flexibility and standby capability.
