Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a platform self-elevating marine as defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • this bridge To reassemble the bridge on the support columns this bridge, from a position in which the bridge is floating on the surface of the water, and while the columns are supported on the seabed, we have between the bridge and the columns of mechanical means, of the type pinion / rack for example, powered by motors. We understand that, given the very high weight of the bridge and of the equipment he wears, these mechanical means must be very powerful and therefore burden the cost of construction of such a platform.
  • the object of the present invention is precisely to build a self-elevating marine platform of the type described in the preamble to this description, the construction cost is not heavily burdened by the presence of expensive mechanical lifting means.
  • the present invention also aims to achieve such a platform that can be fully deployed on its final installation site, so without step intermediary in another place, and which can be transported and reinstalled on another site, the bottom marine is possibly located at a different depth.
  • the present invention also aims to provide a installation process for this platform.
  • a self-elevating marine platform of the type which comprises a) a bridge supporting equipment, b) at least three columns vertically movable across the bridge and leaning on the seabed to support the bridge over the water surface, c) means for vertically move the bridge over the surface of water and d) means for blocking the vertical position of the bridge when it is placed at a height predetermined by said displacement means, this platform being remarkable in that said bridge is a buoyant hull deck and in that said means of displacement are flotation means arranged for transmit the buoyancy buoyancy to said hull deck is applied to them, so as to raise said hull deck from a float position to said height predetermined.
  • the columns are each made up of first and second telescopically sliding elements, one in the other and in solidarity with the bridge and the seabed respectively.
  • the flotation means are made up by a plurality of movable floats each sliding in the second element of a telescopic column.
  • the flotation means are constituted by a plurality of floats each mounted to slide vertical on one of the columns of the bridge support, said floats which can be detached from said deck after installation.
  • the floats are toroidal and each crossed by one of said columns.
  • a method is provided according to which a) tows the floating platform to its site final installation, raised columns, b) we do descend the lower end of each of said columns to across the bridge to the seabed, this process being remarkable in that c) we unballast the means of flotation so that these transmit to the bridge the Archimedes' push they undergo until this thrust brings the bridge to said predetermined height above of the surface of the water and d) the bridge is blocked on its support columns at said predetermined height.
  • the embodiment shown of the platform according to the invention comprises a bridge 1 and at least three, and preferably four, support columns 2 i (i from 1 to 4).
  • Deck 1 is of the "hull deck” type having positive buoyancy, raised columns, as will be seen below.
  • the platform is shown deployed on its final installation site, the columns 2 i being supported by their lower ends on a seabed 3, while the bridge 1 is fixed on the upper ends of these columns, at a height predetermined H above the surface 4 of the water, guaranteeing a suitable freeboard for equipment located on the deck, such as a derrick 5, a crane 6 and a structure 7 comprising the usual equipment of a platform form of exploration or exploitation of an oil field located on the seabed 3, unit for processing products extracted from the field, living quarters, helicopter landing platform, etc.
  • the anchoring of the feet, or bases, of the columns 2 i in the seabed 3 can be reinforced by any means known for this purpose, such as stability floors 8 1 , 8 2 , spades, etc.
  • the columns 2 i of the platform can slide in respective complementary cylindrical openings 9 i with a vertical axis, provided at the four corners of the bridge 1 (see FIG. 2).
  • This vertical sliding capacity of the columns is used in the process according to the invention for installing the platform, as will be seen below.
  • the bridge is fixed to the upper ends of the columns 2 i by any means known for this purpose in the art, such as welding, bolting, cementing of the ring finger, etc.
  • the columns 2 i are telescopic, each comprising first (10 i ) and second (11 i ) cylindrical and coaxial elements sliding one inside the other.
  • the elements 10 i and 11 i are respectively integral with the bridge 1 and the bottom 3, the elements 10 i sliding in the elements 11 i .
  • the upper element 10 i of each column takes the form of a float, that is to say of a sealed compartment, cylindrical in this case, capable of being ballasted or deballasted with sea water by conventional ballasting / deballasting means (not shown) constituted by pumps and suitably arranged water intake / discharge conduits.
  • each column is, on the contrary, in communication with sea water through openings (not shown). It follows that an Archimedes thrust is exerted on the floats 10 i , equal to the weight of the volume of water displaced by the floats, these floats thus constituting means for moving the bridge upwards, under the effect of Archimedes' thrust which they transmit to the bridge.
  • the height H of the bridge 1 can be adjusted above the surface of the water, to a predetermined value guaranteeing a suitable draft for the bridge.
  • This adjustment is obtained by adjusting the ballasting of the floats 10 i , as described below in conjunction with FIGS. 3A to 3F to which reference is now made to describe the method of installing the platform according to invention.
  • the invention makes it possible to achieve the announced objectives, namely to ensure an economic deployment of a jack-up platform, the economy being obtained thanks to the implementation of the applied Archimedes thrust to floats 10 i arranged to lift said bridge, said floats 10 i themselves forming part of the support columns 2 i of the platform and thus fulfilling a double function of lifting and definitive support of the bridge.
  • This avoids having to have between the bridge and each of the columns expensive motor and transmission devices, pinion / rack for example, to raise the bridge to its final working position.
  • the deployment of the platform according to the invention takes place entirely on the final installation site.
  • the platform can be easily transported from one site to another and reinstalled on the latter, even if the depth of the bottom of this site would be different, the height of the columns can be easily modified by changing the level of connection between elements 10 i and 11 i , by adding an element complementary to element 11 i , or by other known means.
  • FIG. 4 a variant of the platform of FIGS. 1 and 2 has been shown, in which the lower element 11 i is no longer of solid cylindrical shape, but has a structure in metallic mesh , possible structure since this lower element does not have to be sealed and only acts as a guide for the upper element 10 i .
  • the variant of FIG. 5 differs from the platform of FIG. 1 in that the part 10 ′ i of an upper column element 10 i which projects from the surface 4 of the water in the final position of the platform, has a cross section smaller than that of the part of the element 10 i which is below the surface of the water and which acts as a float. This reduces the swell effect on these columns.
  • the part of the upper column element 10 i which projects beyond the surface of the water can be made of wire mesh, just as the lower element 11 i could also be.
  • FIG. 7 The variant of FIG. 7 is similar to that of FIG. 5, from which it is distinguished in that means 17 i are formed at the top of the lower elements 11 i of the columns for stopping the floats 10 i during their ascent, this blocking determining the height H of deck 1 above the water.
  • These stop means 17 i are constituted by conformal conical skirts formed respectively on each float 10 i and at the top of the upper column element 11 i in which the float slides.
  • the outlet for the skirts can be located under the surface 4 of the water, as shown for column 2 1 or, preferably, above this surface, as shown for column 2 2 .
  • the columns 2 i are not telescopic.
  • the floats 10 i for raising the deck 1 are toroidal in shape, elongated vertically, and each crossed by one of the columns. They are movable between a high position, reached by deballasting and suitable for bringing the deck 1 to the height H above the water, as shown for the float 10 1 , and a low position bearing on the foot of the column. , as shown for float 10 2 . In this last position the float releases the upper part of the column and thus reduces its size, and therefore its grip in the swell.
  • floats 18 1 , 18 2 , .. are mounted to slide vertically on a barge 19 installed between the columns 2 i .
  • This barge can then be used to ensure the buoyancy of deck 1 during the towing of the platform to its installation site. It is not necessary, then, that the deck 1 be of the buoyant "hull deck” type.
  • the deballasting of the floats 18 i makes it possible to raise the bridge to the height H.
  • the barge 19 and the floats 18 i can then be evacuated from the installation site.
  • a base secures the column bases, which are also type of those shown in Figures 1 to 7. This base improves platform stability when this is made necessary due to poorer characteristics from the seabed.
  • the base 20 is constituted by a beam trellis.
  • the base 21 takes the form of a compartment that can accommodate ballast material. This compartment can also be used to store products extracted by the platform.
