Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for stabilizing a floating vessel against a stationary object, such as a mast of an offshore wind turbine.
- the stationary object is sited in open water, for example, the vessel being stabilized against it for the transfer of persons or goods.
- a windmill park at sea persons and goods are repeatedly transferred to offshore wind turbines under construction.
- installed wind turbines are regularly visited for maintenance activities.
- Other stationary objects at sea are also frequently visited with vessels for transfer of crew or equipment.
- EP 1695902 discloses a method for stabilizing a floating vessel against an offshore construction.
- the vessel has a motor for the propulsion of the vessel. With the motor, a fender on the bow of the vessel is pushed firmly against the offshore construction. The force applied by the motor and the friction between the fender and the offshore construction prevent the fender from sliding down along the offshore construction. As long as the fender is stabilized against the offshore construction, crew or equipment can be transferred between the vessel and the offshore construction.
- the significant wave height Hs is a term which is commonly known within shipping.
- the significant wave height is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves.
- the significant wave height can be determined visually or by measurements. If the significant wave height is less than 1.5 metres, waves will therefore still come past which are higher. It is impossible to predict when precisely this will happen and what the height of the wave will then be. In principle, each successive wave can create a hazardous situation in connection with the transfer of persons or goods. If, as a result of the wave motion, the propeller of the motor emerges above the water surface, even if only briefly, then the friction between the fender and the offshore construction is lost immediately.
- the bow of the vessel breaks free from the offshore construction and can move up or down depending on the wave situation.
- the random wind and current conditions which are unpredictable or scarcely predictable, also play a part in this.
- the unforeseen wave patterns and other conditions offshore adversely affect safety in the transfer of persons or goods.
- the motor will misfire or cut, for example as a result of contaminated fuel, mechanical or electrical defects, whereby a dangerous situation directly arises. It must here be borne in mind that the transfer of persons or goods to an offshore wind turbine can last, for example, 20 minutes or more.
- An object of the invention is to provide an improved method for stabilizing a floating vessel against a stationary object.
- This object is achieved according to the invention by a method for stabilizing a floating vessel against a stationary object, wherein the vessel is provided with:
- the buffer body of the floating vessel is first pushed against the stationary object, for example a mast of an offshore wind turbine, by means of the motor.
- the buffer body is then substantially stabilized against the stationary object by continued pushing by the motor of the buffer body against the stationary object.
- the stabilization of the buffer body against the stationary object takes place by virtue of friction between the buffer body and the stationary object.
- the buffer body is in this case unable or scarcely able to slide downwards or upwards along the stationary object.
- the buffer body therefore forms a friction body - in this patent application, the term buffer body can be replaced by the term friction body. While the buffer body remains stabilized against the stationary object by the pushing, the engagement member of the engagement arm next engages on the stationary object.
- the vessel and the stationary object are then connected to each other by the engagement arm.
- the engagement arm pulls the vessel more firmly against the stationary object, or the vessel is pushed away from the stationary object.
- the engagement arm is subjected to tensile load in the longitudinal direction thereof.
- the buffer body is hereupon clamped firmly against the stationary object.
- the buffer body and the tensile-loaded engagement arm provide a stable connection between the vessel and the stationary object. Once this stable connection is established, the vessel no longer needs to be stabilized by the pushing with the motor. If the motor force, as a result of an unforeseen high wave, suddenly decreases or even totally falls away, the stable connection between the vessel and the stationary object remains guaranteed. According to the invention, crew and equipment can hence be transferred in a safe and guaranteed manner even if an unforeseen high wave comes past.
- a vessel having a gangway is known. One part thereof is pivotally connected about a horizontal axis to a platform at the upper end of a column which is mounted on the deck of the vessel rotatably about a vertical axis. A second part of the gangway may be retracted or extended with respect to the first part of the gangway. The second part has a crossover platform and a coupling device in order to establish a connection to a vertical bar of a pile in open water.
- a buffer body which is pushed against the pile by means of the propulsion motor of the vessel is not known, however. Nor is the buffer body substantially stabilized against the vertical bar of the pile. And nor, therefore, can the engagement of the coupling jaws on the vertical bar take place while the buffer body and the vertical bar are mutually stabilized by the pushing.
- the coupling of a vessel to a stationary object by means of a gangway fastened to the vessel is known.
- the gangway comprises a first gangway part and a second gangway part which telescopes into said first gangway part.
- a bumper strip on the side edge of the gangway is placed against a support of the stationary object.
- the bumper strip is not, however, substantially stabilized against the support, nor is the engagement of clamps on a coupling pipe of the stationary object conducted while the bumper strip and the coupling pipe are mutually stabilized by the pushing of the vessel by means of the propulsion motor.
- a first connection between the vessel and the stationary object by the substantial stabilization of the buffer body against the stationary object by the pushing of the buffer body of the vessel against the stationary object by the propulsion of the vessel by means of the motor.
- the stabilization of the buffer body against the stationary object is realized by means of friction between the buffer body and the stationary object, so that the buffer body is unable or scarcely able to slide downwards or upwards along the stationary object.
- a second connection between the vessel and the stationary object is formed by the engagement of the engagement member on the stationary object. The second connection guarantees that the vessel and the stationary object are mutually coupled.
- the stationary object is provided with at least two substantially vertical bumper bars, wherein the engagement member of the first engagement arm engages on a first bumper bar, and wherein the vessel is provided with at least a second engagement arm, which at one end is provided with an engagement member for engaging on a second bumper bar, and wherein both engagement members engage on the bumper bars while the buffer body and the stationary object are mutually stabilized by the pushing, and wherein both engagement arms are subjected to tensile load while the engagement members thereof engage on the bumper bars.
- the bumper bars of the stationary object are placed parallel to each other and at a distance apart. If the vessel is connected to both bumper bars by the engagement arms, the vessel can be prevented from pivoting in a horizontal plane about the stationary object. This increases safety in the transfer of persons or goods.
- the or each engagement arm is displaceable between an engagement position, in which the engagement member thereof engages on the stationary object, and a release position, in which the engagement member thereof releases the stationary object, and wherein the or each engagement arm is in the release position prior to the pushing, and wherein the or each engagement arm is displaced from the release position to the engagement position after the buffer body has been stabilized against the stationary object by the pushing.
- the or each engagement arm is rotatably connected to the vessel about a substantially vertical rotational axis.
- the or each engagement arm is first pivoted against the stationary object, for example against the bumper bars, so that the engagement member can engage on the stationary object. Then tensile load is applied to the or each engagement arm. This is favourable, for example, if the engagement arms are fitted to a pointed bow of the vessel.
- the or each engagement arm is fitted to a trolley which is displaceable in the transverse direction of the vessel.
- the trolley with engagement arm can in this case slide from the outside inwards against the stationary object, for example against the bumper bars, after which the engagement member engages on the stationary object. Then the or each engagement arm is subjected to tensile load.
- This can be used, for example, where there are one or more engagement arms fitted to a flat bow or stern of the vessel.
- the or each engagement arm comprises an elongated supporting portion and an elongated engagement portion, wherein the supporting portion is connected to the vessel, and wherein the engagement portion is displaceable in the longitudinal direction with respect to the supporting portion, and wherein the engagement portion, at the end facing away from the supporting portion, is provided with the engagement member.
- the engagement portion forms a boom which is fitted to the supporting portion such that it can be moved to and fro.
- the engagement portion is in a retracted position with respect to the supporting portion.
- the engagement member of the engagement portion is movable from the hull of the vessel into an extended position, in which the engagement member can engage on the stationary object while the buffer body rests against the stationary object.
- the supporting portion is tubular, for example, the engagement portion being accommodated telescopically in the tubular supporting portion.
- the or each engagement arm is provided with a drive member for driving the engagement portion with respect to the supporting portion, and wherein the or each engagement arm is subjected to tensile load by the drive member of the said engagement arm.
- the drive member comprises, for example, a hydraulic cylinder, which is fitted to the engagement portion. The hydraulic cylinder can move the engagement portion to and fro with respect to the supporting portion.
- the drive member of the or each engagement arm enables a displacement of the engagement portion in the longitudinal direction with respect to the supporting portion as the engagement arm is subjected to tensile load.
- the buffer body and the tensile-loaded engagement arm or engagement arms provide a stable connection between the vessel and the stationary object.
- the buffer body is fixedly fastened to the hull of the vessel. If the stable connection has been established, the vessel can still rotate about a transverse axis determined by the buffer body.
- the or each engagement arm is located at a distance above the said transverse axis. If the vessel, for example as the result of a wave, rotates downwards about the said transverse axis, the engagement portion moves outwards with respect to the supporting portion.
- the length of the engagement arm increases. The fact that the engagement arm is here kept at a substantially constant pressure and remains under tensile load means that the stable connection can be guaranteed.
- the length of the displacement of the engagement portion with respect to the supporting portion is less than the length of the engagement arm, for instance no greater than about 25% of the length of the engagement arm.
- the length of the said displacement is, for example, less than 70 cm, in particular less than about 50 cm.
- Tensile load can be applied to the engagement arm by the application of tensile load from the vessel to the engagement arm. It is also possible that the engagement arm is subjected to tensile load by a thrust from the vessel onto the stationary object. The thrust is applied to the stationary object, for example, by the buffer body.
- the buffer body is displaceable with respect to the hull of the vessel, wherein the buffer body is provided with a drive member for driving the buffer body with respect to the hull of the vessel, and wherein the or each engagement arm is subjected to tensile load by the drive member of the buffer body.
- the drive member of the buffer body comprises, for example, a hydraulic cylinder.
- the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the vessel. The hydraulic cylinder can move the buffer body to and fro with respect to the hull of the vessel and can abut the buffer body under pressure against the stationary object.
- the drive member of the buffer body enables a displacement of the buffer body with respect to the hull as the or each engagement arm is subjected to tensile load.
- the buffer body and the tensile-loaded engagement arm or engagement arms provide a stable connection between the vessel and the stationary object.
- the engagement arm or engagement arms possess a fixed length. If the stable connection has been established, the vessel can still rotate about a transverse axis which is determined by the engagement member of the engagement arm connected to the stationary object.
- the buffer body is placed at a height below the engagement arm or engagement arms, i.e. below the said transverse axis.
- the buffer portion moves outwards with respect to the hull of the vessel.
- the length of the displacement of the buffer body with respect to the hull of the vessel is less than the length of the engagement arm, for instance no greater than about 25% of the length of the engagement arm.
- the length of the said displacement is, for example, less than 70 cm, in particular less than about 50 cm.
- the drive member of the or each engagement arm and/or the drive member of the buffer body each comprises a hydraulic cylinder and a collecting container, wherein the collecting container is provided with a movable partition wall, wherein the partition wall divides the collecting container into two chambers, wherein the first chamber is closed off and comprises a compressible fluid, and wherein the second chamber comprises hydraulic fluid and is connected to the hydraulic cylinder.
- the movable partition wall such as a bellows-shaped partition wall, divides the interior of the collecting container into two chambers.
- the second chamber is filled with hydraulic fluid and is connected to the hydraulic cylinder.
- the or each engagement arm is hence kept at a substantially constant pressure as tensile load is applied to the said engagement arm, while a displacement of the engagement portion with respect to the supporting portion remains possible by the displacement of the movable partition wall in the collecting container.
- the pushing of the buffer body of the vessel against the stationary object by means of the motor can substantially be halted.
- the buffer body remains stabilized against the stationary object by the buffer body and the tensile-loaded engagement arm.
- the motor can even be switched off, which saves on fuel.
- the invention additionally relates to a vessel, comprising:
- the engagement member of the first engagement arm is designed to engage on a first, substantially vertical bumper bar of the stationary object
- the vessel is provided with at least a second engagement arm, which at one end is provided with an engagement member for engaging on a second, substantially vertical bumper bar of the stationary object

- the actuating device is designed to apply tensile load to both engagement arms when they engage on the bumper bars.
- each engagement arm is displaceable between an engagement position, in which the stationary object is engageable by the engagement member, and a release position, in which the stationary object has been released by the engagement member.
- the engagement arm or engagement arms are adjustable they can adapt to the position of the vessel with respect to the stationary object.
- the or each engagement arm comprises an elongated supporting portion and an elongated engagement portion, wherein the supporting portion is connected to the vessel, and wherein the engagement portion is displaceable in the longitudinal direction with respect to the supporting portion, and wherein the engagement portion, at the end facing away from the supporting portion, is provided with the engagement member.
- the length of the or each engagement arm is hereby variable.
- the actuating device comprises one or more drive members, wherein the or each engagement arm is provided with the drive member or a respective drive member, wherein the or each drive member is designed to drive the engagement portion with respect to the supporting portion of the engagement arm, and wherein the drive member of the or each engagement arm is designed to apply tensile load to the said engagement arm when this engages on the stationary object.
- the drive member of the or each engagement arm is designed to enable a displacement of the engagement portion in the longitudinal direction with respect to the supporting portion as the engagement arm is subjected to tensile load. If a buffer body is fixedly fastened to the hull, the vessel can rotate about that buffer body, whereupon the engagement arm becomes to some extent longer or shorter, while the said engagement arm is kept at pressure.
- the actuating device can be designed to apply tensile load to the engagement arm by the application of a tensile load from the vessel to the engagement arm. It is also possible that the actuating device is designed to apply tensile load to the engagement arm by the application of a thrust from the vessel to the stationary object. For example, the actuating device is designed to apply tensile load to the engagement arm by the application of a thrust to the stationary object by the buffer body.
- the buffer body is displaceable with respect to the hull of the vessel, wherein the actuating device is provided with a drive member for driving the buffer body with respect to the hull of the vessel, and wherein the drive member of the buffer body is designed to apply a tensile load to the or each engagement arm.

- the drive member of the or each engagement arm and/or the drive member of the buffer body each comprises at least one hydraulic cylinder and a collecting container, wherein the collecting container is provided with a movable partition wall, wherein the partition wall divides the collecting container into two chambers, wherein the first chamber is closed off and comprises a compressible fluid, and wherein the second chamber comprises hydraulic fluid and is connected to the hydraulic cylinder.
- the invention likewise relates to a system comprising a vessel as described above and a stationary object, for example the mast of an offshore wind turbine or another offshore construction.
- the stationary object can be provided with two substantially vertical bumper bars, which are placed substantially parallel to each other and at a distance apart.
- the engagement members of the engagement arms can engage on the bumper bars.
- a stationary object 3 is installed in a sea 2.
- the stationary object 3 is an offshore wind turbine, which is provided with a mast.
- To the mast of the wind turbine 3 are fitted two substantially vertical bumper bars 5, 6. Between the bumper bars 5, 6 there is a ladder 7, by which installation or maintenance crew can climb up and down the wind turbine 3.
- the crew is brought to the offshore wind turbine 3 with a floating vessel 1 (a so-called "crew transport vessel”).
- the floating vessel 1 comprises a motor 14 for the propulsion of the vessel 1.

- the length of the displacement of the engagement portion with respect to the supporting portion is, for example, no greater than about 30 cm.
- the engagement arms 20, 21 are subjected to tensile load by the application of a thrust from the vessel 1 to the bumper bars 5, 6 of the offshore wind turbine 3.

- the buffer body 16 and the engagement member 24 are mutually displaceable.
- One or more hydraulic cylinders 30, which can move the buffer body 16 to and fro with respect to the hull 9, are connected between the supporting frame 17 and the base frame 32. By means of the hydraulic cylinders 30, a thrust can be applied by the buffer body 16. The buffer body 16 can then rest under pressure against the bumper bars 5, 6.
