Abstract
[0001] The present invention relates to a marine structure, and more particularly, to a marine structure having a thruster, wherein one surface of the thruster is provided with a curved surface, And the head box is formed asymmetrically.
In the marine structure according to the present invention, the head box used for installing the thruster in the marine structure is formed asymmetrically, so that lift can be generated by the head box and used for position control.
Description
The present invention relates to a marine structure.
Due to the recent rapid industrialization, the use of resources such as oil has skyrocketed, and the stable production and supply of oil is becoming a very important issue. However, the oil field in the continental or coastal waters has already been drilled. In recent years, interest has been focused on the development of a deep-sea deep-sea oil field. Drilling is generally used to drill deep-sea oilfields.
Drill ship is an offshore structure that is equipped with advanced drilling equipment and is built in a shape similar to that of a ship so that it can be sailed by its own power. It is capable of collecting raw oil or gas in deep sea area where an offshore platform can not be installed, It is advantageous that the drilling can be terminated and the drilling can be carried out by moving to another point.
Such drillings include Derrick, which has a Moonpool structure in a vertically penetrating form and is located above the drum and has drilling rigs. Hereinafter, the process of drilling the bottom of the drill ship will be described.
First, the drill ship uses its own power to move to the drilling area and drives a Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) using a plurality of thrusters to maintain the position.
Thereafter, the drill bit is connected to a drill pipe by a drill bit, and a plurality of drill pipes are connected by a sufficient length by using a Hoisting System and a Handling System provided in Derrick, And the drilling pipe is rotated through a rotating system to form a borehole.
Once drilling is completed, Derek picks up the drill pipe, installs the casing pipe on the borehole, and performs the cementing process to fill the concrete between the casing pipe and the borehole. The drilling operation used and the casing and cementing work for installing the casing pipe are repeatedly performed to maintain the shape of the borehole having a certain depth.
When the casing pipe is installed enough to prevent the borehole from falling down, BOP (Blow Out Preventer) is connected to the riser to be connected to the borehole. In this case, the inside of the riser becomes the path of movement of the drill pipe and casing pipe.
However, lubrication and cooling of the drill bit in the drilling process, and processing of the crushed material such as rock mass produced in the borehole are required. Therefore, the drill feeds the mud to the inside of the drill pipe so that the mud is discharged at the end of the drill bit, and after the mud performs lubrication and cooling of the drill bit, (Mud Circulation System) is used. The recovered mud is re-used after the pulverized material is filtered.
The drillship repeatedly performs drilling, casing and cementing operations until the drill bit reaches the well, while driving this mud circulation system. In this case, as the diameter of the casing pipe used in the casing work becomes smaller, Drilling can be implemented continuously by replacing small drill bits.
As such, the drill rig has a system for installing and using pipes and risers, a system using a mud, and the like. In order to smoothly perform drilling work using such a system, a drill hole structure, a derrick structure, and a load structure Is required to be disposed within a certain space, so that research and development are being continuously carried out as a result of a high technological power being required.
At this time, the thruster used for the propulsion or the position control of the drill is provided on the bottom surface of the drill, and is provided at the front and the rear in plural. However, the thruster generates an inflow through the rotation of the propeller and generates a wake in a certain direction. In this process, the wake generated by one thruster causes interference with the influx of the other thruster, There is a problem that the propulsion may not be performed properly, which causes an increase in unnecessary energy consumption.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a thruster capable of rotating the upper and lower central axes of the thrusters at a predetermined angle, To provide a thruster capable of minimizing inter-flow interference and a marine structure having the thruster.
It is also an object of the present invention to provide a thruster capable of effectively controlling the flow by asymmetrically forming the longitudinal length of the duct surrounding the propeller of the thruster, and a marine structure having the thruster.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a thruster having a rudder at a rear end or a front end of a duct and capable of easily controlling a wake direction by a thruster through adjustment of a rudder and a marine structure having the thruster.
It is also an object of the present invention to provide a thruster capable of variously controlling thrust by changing the sectional area of the portion through which the wake of the propeller passes by moving the auxiliary vane forward or backward, And to provide a marine structure.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a marine structure capable of utilizing a lift generated through a headbox for position control by providing a head box provided on a lower surface of a marine structure asymmetrically for installing a power transmitting portion.
The sea structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is a marine structure having a thruster, wherein one side of the sea structure on which the thruster is installed is a curved surface, and a plane for installing the thruster is formed on the curved surface And the head box is formed asymmetrically.
Specifically, the left and right sides of the head box can form a curved surface that is convex outwardly.
Specifically, the degree of convexity of the left and right sides of the head box may be different from each other.
Specifically, one of the left and right sides of the head box forms an outwardly convex curved surface, and the other of the left and right sides can form a vertical plane.
Specifically, the head box can generate lifting due to the flow of seawater through the asymmetrical shape.
Specifically, the upper and lower central axes of the thruster may be disposed at one side from a midpoint between the left and right sides of the head box.
Specifically, the upper and lower central axes of the thruster may be biased to a relatively convex side outward at a midpoint between the left and right sides of the head box.
Specifically, the upper and lower central axes of the thruster may be biased to the other side opposite to one side forming a vertical plane at a midpoint between the left and right sides of the headbox.
Specifically, the thruster includes: a power transmission portion extending downward from a lower surface of the headbox; A driving unit connected to a lower end of the power transmission unit; A propeller rotated by the driving unit; And a duct provided to surround the outer circumferential surface of the propeller.
