Definitions
- the invention relates to an apparatus and a method to separate upright, with your lower End of pipes anchored in the ground, especially of support legs an offshore oil drilling or production platform the preambles of claims 1 and 4, respectively.
- From DE-PS 671 660 is a device for severing known from pipes embedded in deep boreholes, whose cutting tool by means of a rod in the pipe is let down to the point of separation.
- the Cutting tool is attached to the inner wall of the pipe and cut it from the inside out.
- This device is not suitable for platforms because the separation point is always in an area of the support legs, the one with seabed, concrete or similar is filled and thus a lowering of the separation point is not possible.
- a device for cutting is from US Pat of the support legs of an off-shore oil drilling or production platform and their segmental removal known.
- the Device is due to the special structure used there Adjusted support legs.
- these consist of an outer Jacket tube and on the other hand from an inner tubular Stake.
- the jacket pipes With the jacket pipes, the off-shore oil drilling or production platform first placed on the seabed.
- these cladding tubes in the seabed are then let down the tubular piles within the casing pipes and driven into the ocean floor.
- the length of the Piles are chosen so that after a sufficient hold was reached in the bottom of the sea Pass in the casing tube.
- the one between the inner pole and the outer casing tube formed for fastening the off-shore oil drilling or production platform on the ocean floor or to attach the casing tube to the pile a grouting material, such as concrete, backfilled.
- the concrete is first between an ultrasound process crushed the pile and tube and then rinsed.
- a separator is then used to remove the pile to the top of the tubular pile let down.
- This separator essentially consists from a clamping device to attach it to the inside of the pile to be able to hold a predetermined position, as well as from a Cutting device to cut the upper segment of the pile to be able to separate.
- the cutting device has one in the radial direction and thus acting in the direction of the inner wall of the pile Piston / cylinder unit on, over the rotating cutting discs can be placed on the inner wall of the pile.
- the object of the invention is a method and an apparatus to create with the pipes of greater length and large diameter like the pillars of offshore oil drilling or production platforms despite the material in the pipes, such as soil or concrete quickly and therefore economically even under the seabed can be separated and also prevented here will that by friction of the cutting tools on the edges of the Separation groove and in the seabed outside the pipe increased wear or even breakage occurs.
- the complete severing of the pipe due to rising air above the platform signals. This measure prevents the Cutting tools by an intervention in the environment of the cut pipe prematurely wear or even destroyed become.
- a cutting process is quick because in this way from the relatively soft structural steel of the pipe thick chips removed and in the narrow circumferential direction extending separation zone a groove with a high Feed and high stock removal rate until cutting of the entire material cross-section can be introduced. Since it is cut from the inside, it plays no matter where the separation point with respect to the seabed is located; the procedure is carried out in its function does not affect the external conditions.
- the task is carried out in its apparatus aspect solved a device according to claim 4, thereby is characterized in that the power drive (34; 134) at least a piston / cylinder unit that can be operated with compressed air comprises and that means are provided that a connection between the working volume of the piston / cylinder unit and the cutting unit (40) and the drilling tool (60) supporting hollow rods (14), as soon as the cutting tools are in their radially outer Extreme position.
