Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Offshore-Anordnung (1) zur Aufnahme einer Umspannungsanlage für eine Offshore-Windkraftanlage und ein Verfahren zur Installation einer derartigen Offshore-Anordnung. Diese weist einen Rumpfkörper (2) mit einem durch die äußere Hülle (25) definierten Innenraum (15), in dem zumindest ein Teil einer Umspannungsanlage installiert werden kann, und einen länglichen, rohrförmigen Turmabschnitt (3), der sich von dem Rumpfkörper (2) erstreckt und zwischen dessen einander gegenüberliegenden Enden ein Zugangsschacht (20) verläuft. Der Zugangsschacht (20) des Turmabschnitts (3) und der Innenraum (15) des Rumpfkörpers (2) können über eine am dem Rumpfkörper (2) gegenüberliegenden Ende des Turmabschnitts (3) vorgesehene Zugangsöffnung mit der Umgebung verbunden werden. Die Offshore-Anordnung (1) weist ferner eine erste Ballasteinrichtung (6) und eine zweite Ballasteinrichtung (32) auf. In letztere kann wahlweise Wasserballast eingelassen oder aus dieser ausgelassen werden. Die erste Ballasteinrichtung (6) ist in der Weise angeordnet und mit Ballastmaterial (33) gefüllt, dass die Offshore-Anordnung (1) ohne Wasserballast in der zweiten Ballasteinrichtung (32) in Wasser stabil so schwimmen kann, dass sich der Turmabschnitt (3) von der Oberseite (4) des Rumpfkörpers (2) quer zur Wasseroberfläche (34) erstreckt. Die zweite Ballasteinrichtung (32) ist in der Weise angeordnet und ausgestaltet, dass die Offshore-Anordnung (1) durch Einbringen von Wasserballast in die zweite Ballasteinrichtung (32) aus dem schwimmenden Zustand im Wasser abgesenkt werden kann. Auf diese Weise erfolgt die Installation der Offshore-Anordnung (1) am Einsatzort.

The invention relates to an offshore arrangement (1) for accommodating a recirculation system for an offshore wind turbine and to a method for installing such an offshore arrangement. The latter has a body (2) with an interior (15) defined by the outer shell (25), in which at least part of a transhipment installation can be installed, and an elongated, tubular tower section (3) extending from the body (2 ) and between the opposite ends of an access shaft (20) extends. The access shaft (20) of the tower section (3) and the interior (15) of the fuselage body (2) can be connected to the environment via an access opening provided on the fuselage body (2) opposite the tower section (3). The offshore arrangement (1) furthermore has a first ballast device (6) and a second ballast device (32). In the latter, either water ballast can be admitted or omitted from this. The first ballast device (6) is arranged in such a way and filled with ballast material (33) that the offshore arrangement (1) without water ballast in the second ballast device (32) can float in water stably so that the tower section (3) from the top (4) of the trunk body (2) extends transversely to the water surface (34). The second ballast device (32) is arranged and configured in such a way that the offshore arrangement (1) can be lowered from the floating state in the water by introducing water ballast into the second ballast device (32). In this way, the installation of the offshore arrangement (1) takes place at the site.
