The United States Navy is currently looking at methods of supplying a Marine Expeditionary Brigade (MEB) in the event that there is not a friendly port available in the area of conflict. One solution that is being investigated is the use of a sea base to supply a MEB from offshore. An important characteristic of the sea base is to store enough supplies to support a MEB for a sustained amount of time while being 100 % selective, which is defined as the ability to select a specific container or vehicle from a storage area without having to rearrange the contents of the area. An equally important quality of any storage area is the ability to have 100% selectability of materials while maintaining high storage efficiencies. The selective offload team has developed several concepts that satisfy these characteristics. The designs are based on traditional methods of storing goods in warehouses. However, these concepts incorporate innovative technologies to produce higher storage efficiencies than land base warehouses while maintaining 100% selectability of supplies.
