This is analogous to Sophie Germain semiprimes A111153 and the chains shown are analogous to Cunningham chains of the first kind and Tomaszewski chains of the first kind. Define a 3n+1 semiprime chain of length k. This is a sequence of semiprimes s(1) < s(2) < ... < s(k) such that s(i+1) = 3*s(i) + 1 for i = 1, ..., k-1. Length 3: 111, 334, 1003; 142, 427, 1282. Length 4: 35, 106, 319, 958; 86, 259, 778, 2335; 187, 562, 1687, 5062.
