Abstract (en)

There is disclosed a vessel having a double bottom (3), in which double bottom cooling water passage means (6) are provided and in which heat exchangers (5) coupled to said cooling water passage means are disposed. In particular, the heat exchangers (5) are disposed in channels (8) extending in the longitudinal direction in the double-walled bottom of the vessel. Selective closure of certain channels makes it possible to carry out maintenance and repairs, at sea, on the heat exchanger(s) present therein during normal operation of the vessel based on a forced flow.
