Semi-submersible platform - Wikipedia
src: upload.wikimedia.org

Semi-submersible may refer to a self-propelled vessel, such as:

  • Heavy-lift ship, which partially submerge to allow their cargo (another ship) to float into place for transport.
  • Narco-submarine, some of which remained partially on the surface.
  • Semi-submarine, which cannot fully submerge.
  • Semi-submersible naval vessel, which partially submerges to minimize being observed.

Or it may refer to a semi-submersible platform, which is typically transported to a location where it is placed in service.
