Abstract

Procédé pour établir une jonction "intégrale" entre le fond marin (1) et un tunnel (3) ou une partie de celui-ci, situé sous le fond marin. Le tunnel est creusé à l'explosif ou foré depuis la formation de roches et le percement du tunnel s'arrête le plus près possible de la surface du fond marin sans mettre en danger le personnel et le matériel. La jonction entre le fond marin et le tunnel est réalisée en forant depuis le fond marin (1) un certain nombre de trous (8) débouchant dans le tunnel (3) et possédant une section traversante totale qui, dans le domaine hydrodynamique, correspond au moins à la section du tunnel.
