Is it a huge daunting engineering task to create a very large dynamic o ring water seal (sliding up and down a shaft with ring on a mating surface) say about 50 or 100 meters in diamter? Would it be a good idea to make the ring and moving part a cube like shape so as to have a square seal (versus round ring seal) to make it easier to manufacture?
It would be used in the sea down as far as say 200 to 300 meters so the water pressure would be around 3000 Kpa. It would be slightly acceptable for a little bit of water (lubricator) to enter past the seal and mating surface (no hard to internal object)
