Nautical Mining System
Developed by Colonel Seeral Korrd and various engineers under his command, the Empire's Nautical Mining System is a network of platforms that can be deployed with minimal to no casualties or resistance.
Despite the lack of natural cover, defenses, or roads on worlds entirely covered by oceans, the platforms can be dropped from orbit, constructed, moved, and withdrawn faster than mining stations established on terrestrial planets.
The floating platforms serve as stations in the mining system's network, and each can be adapted to handle different crucial steps in the kolto mining process, including harvesting, refining, and shipping. Unique shielding technology is used below the surface to drain sections of the ocean floor, providing easy access to underwater deposits of kolto, while the surface levels are equipped with state-of-the-art defenses that prevent raiders--or unhappy locals--from interfering with moving the kolto offworld.
Although Manaan is the first planet to have its resources harvested through the Nautical Mining System, its success could mean a wider application of Colonel Korrd's invention on aquatic worlds across the galaxy.
