Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a self-lifting drill rig, and more particularly,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a structure and a method for installing a leg structure of a self-lifting drill ship using a float-over method, and more particularly to a float- The installation structure and method of the self-lifting drill rig that uses the float-over method to reduce the material cost and drying schedule by moving the installation point of the leg structure that was applied in the drying phase after the transportation of the drill ship. .

Self-elevating units or jack-up rigs are floating structures that float on water when moving from sea to sea. However, when drilling in the installation area, three or four support pillars (legs) To the seabed and then fixes the hull to the top of the sea bed.

In recent years, as the mining operation of oil or gas resources in the deep sea area has increased, the self-lifting drill ship, which was mainly used for shallow depths of less than 100 m, has advanced to the deep sea area of 200 m or more in depth.

There are no equipments that can mount the long supporting columns of the self-lifting drill ship used in the deep sea station on the ground at one time. In addition, when the work is carried out several times at sea, the boom height is high, There has been a problem that a large floating floating type crane should be mobilized.

Most floatable floating cranes were manufactured for offshore use, and there were many difficulties in procuring equipment because they could not move and work on several supporting pillars of over 200m in depth and weighing 1,000 tons.

If a supporting column is mounted on the land or coastal area, a long distance travel is required to the sea area. In this case, several hundred of support pillars exceeding 200 m in height and 1,000 tons in weight are projected at the top of the drill ship hull, And it acted as an obstacle to stability.

The technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 55-101616 has a problem in that when the second module separated by the rotating rail moves to the correct position, the upper structure flow is large and structurally unstable, the rail and the stopper function are poor, Since the second module is connected to the first module after the first module is seated, there is a disadvantage that the installation is not easy.

Further, the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 55-101616, since the first module is seated on the seabed and then the second module is connected to the first module, the length of the second module is limited to the range in which the platform can rise at sea level It has a definite defect that it is not applicable to the self-lifting drill ship which is installed in the deep sea station and the supporting column length is relatively long.

Conventionally, a leg structure of a self-lifting drill ship has been performed in a drying stage of a drill ship, and a skidding system according to a skidding system, a mounting system using a crane, and a leg- A method using a special device has been applied or proposed to date.

Since the leg structure of the conventional self-lifting drill rig is installed at the drying stage using various equipments, there is a problem that it takes a lot of time to procure and manufacture the material.

Japanese Patent 55-101616

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the problems described above, and its object is to apply a float-over method applied to a marine installation of a large platform overhead structure to the installation of a leg structure of a self- The lift structure is installed in the operation area after the transportation of the self-lifting drill ship, so that the loading point of the leg structure, which was constructed in the drying step of the self-lifting drill ship, And a leg structure mounting structure of the leg structure.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a structure for installing a leg structure of a self-elevating drill ship on the sea, comprising: a pants installed on the sea for designating a position of the leg; A mooring line connecting the pants to the legs; And a main body of a self-lifting drill string for installing the leg in the sea by a float-over method on the sea floor above the leg.

The step S300 of loading the leg 100 into the main body 300 by the float over method according to the present embodiment is performed when the main body 300 is positioned on the upper sea of the leg 100, the leg 100 is loaded into the main body 300 by a float over method in which the leg 100 is ballasted and de-ballasting is performed.

That is, when the main body 300 and the leg 100 are raised and lowered by a float over method, the leg 100 is loaded into the leg supporting portion 310 of the main body 300.

When the leg 100 according to the present embodiment is loaded in the main body 300, jacking-up and installing the leg 100 in the sea (S400) The leg 100 is jacked up by the operation of the jacking system when the leg 100 is loaded on the leg supporting portion 310 of the main body 300 by the float over method, As shown in FIG.

According to another aspect of the present invention, the pants 200 are installed on the sea where the leg 100 is installed, and the pants 200 and the leg 100 are connected to each other by the mooring line 210, The leg 100 is installed on the sea of the main body 300 while the main body 300 of the self elevating drill rig is positioned on the sea of the upper point and the leg 100 is loaded into the main body 300 by the float over method, Is applied to a ship or an offshore structure having a leg structure installation structure of a self-lifting drill rig that uses a float-over method so that the installation point of the leg structure can be moved after the main body is transported.

That is, to install the leg structure on the sea, the leg 100 installed on the sea floor is connected to the pants 200 by the mooring line 210 and the main body 300 is positioned on the leg 100, The leg 100 is loaded into the main body 300 by a float over method in which the leg 100 is ballasted and de-ballasting the leg 100, and then the jack 100 is jack- -up), it is possible to transfer the installation point of the leg structure, which is constructed in the drying step of the self-lifting drill ship, to the ship after the transportation of the main body 300, thereby reducing the overall drying schedule. .

As described above, according to the structure and method of installing the leg structure of the self-lifting drill rig that employs the float-over method of the present invention, the pants 200 are installed on the sea so as to support the leg 100 installed on the sea floor, And the leg 100 to the mooring line 210.

At this time, the pants 200 installed on the sea are installed at the same positions on the left, right, or various directions of the legs 100, and are connected to the left and right sides or the various directions of the legs 100 with the mooring lines 210 The leg 100 can be stably supported without any flow in the vertical state.

When the main body 300 is positioned on the upper side of the leg 100 in a state where the leg 100 is connected to the pants 200 by the mooring line 210, And the leg 100 is loaded on the leg support 310 of the main body 300 by applying a de-ballasting float over method of the leg 100. [

When the leg 100 is loaded on the main body 300 by the float over method, the jack 100 is jacked up by the jacking system to complete the installation of the leg 100 in the sea.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the leg 100 can be easily installed in the sea by the float-over method, and the drying schedule of the leg structure can be sufficiently secured.

As described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described specific preferred embodiments, and any person skilled in the art can make various modifications without departing from the gist of the present invention. It is to be understood that such changes and modifications are intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims.
