Description

P34508NL00
MARINE VESSEL HAVING A CRANE AND METHOD OF OPERATION The present invention relates to a marine vessel, e.g. a jack-up type vessel, having a crane and a method of operation of such a marine crane vessel. It is commonly known to use marine crane vessels for offshore hoisting purposes, such for the installation and/or maintenance of offshore wind turbines. Other applications are, for example, hoisting activities related to offshore platforms for oil and/or gas production, e.g. for decommission such offshore platforms. Current offshore wind turbines require a foundation, e.g. in the form of a monopile. The wind turbine is then installed on the monopile, either in one piece or in several pieces.
Many known offshore wind turbine installation vessels are of the jack-up type, with extendible jack-up legs and with a crane for installation of the wind turbine. In a known design, the crane is an around-the-leg crane.
In order to make efficient use of wind energy, the trend is to increase the diameter of the rotor of the wind turbine and to have the hub high above the water. Wind turbine blades of 60 — 90 meters in length or even longer may be very common in the near future. The hub of the wind turbine, and therefore the height of the mast, also is ever increasing. For example, the hub may be at 100 meters above the sea, or even higher. This also increases the size and weight of all other components of the turbine installation including the nacelle, hub, generator, blades, mast, and/or the foundation. The trend therefore is towards cranes on such a vessel with an increased reach and lifting capability, so generally a longer and stronger boom, allowing for hoisting operations at great height. During transfer of the vessel, it is advantageous, even necessary, to position the boom in a parking position.
Itis an object of the present invention to provide a marine vessel with a crane having a boom allowing for an advantageous parking routine and parking position. This aim is achieved by a vessel operated according to the method of claim 1.
-2- In the invention, the vessel has a boom rest that is arranged on the hull spaced from the slew bearing and is adapted to rest the main boom section of the boom thereon in a parking position of the boom. Further a fastening assembly is provided which is configured to fasten the object suspension device relative to the hull of the vessel, said fastening assembly being spaced further from the slew bearing than the boom rest.
The method comprise a boom parking routine wherein the boom is brought from a hoisting position into the parking position, wherein said boom parking routine comprises: a. bringing the boom in a raised intermediate position wherein the boom main section is remote from the boom rest and the jib sheave assembly is vertically above the fastening assembly; b. paying out the hoist cable and thereby lowering the object suspension device suspended from the hoisting cable below the jib sheave assembly, said lowering being continued until the object suspension device reaches the fastening assembly, c. fastening the object suspension device to the fastening assembly, d. lowering the main boom section towards the boom rest by means of the luffing assembly combined with hauling in the hoist cable, and possibly also combined with operating the variable length stay mechanism, so that the tip end of the jib member is pulled towards the fastening assembly, until the main boom section rests on the boom rest in the parking position of the boom.
This approach allows for a long boom that allows to meet the industry demand, which boom is then also relatively heavy, whilst assuring a reliable and effective parking of the boom.
In an embodiment, the vessel further comprises a jib tip end support device in proximity of the fastening assembly for the object suspension device, wherein the boom parking routine comprises bringing the tip end of the jib member into load bearing engagement with the jib tip end support device, so that in the parking position of the boom a part of the weight of the boom rests on the boom rest and a part of the weight of the boom rests on the jib tip end support device. This allows to avoid undue load on the boom rest and/or on the main boom section where it is supported by the boom rest.
In an embodiment, the fastening assembly, and possibly also the jib tip end support device, are located closer to the slew bearing than the upper end of the main boom section in the parking position thereof on the boom rest, so that the jib member extends from the inner end thereon inwards relative to the main boom section. This, for instance, may allow for a crane
-3- having a long boom. For example, a marine vessel with a relatively smaller hull can be provided with a crane having a relatively long boom. In an embodiment, use is made of an automated control device that is configured and programmed to perform automatically the steps a., b., and d. of claim 1.
In an embodiment the jib section has a second jib strut oriented at an angle from a first jib strut and configured to engage on the variable length stay mechanism, so as to maintain a lever action of the variable length stay mechanism about the pivot axis of the jib section, e.g. when the first jib strut becomes generally aligned with the main boom section, e.g. during the parking routine.
In an embodiment, the vessel is a marine jack-up type vessel comprising: - a buoyant hull, - atleast three, preferably four or six, jack-up legs, - a plurality of elevating units, each associated with a respective jack-up leg, adapted to move the respective jack-up leg vertically relative to the hull and to bring the vessel in an operational position wherein the legs engage the seabed and the hull is above water level.
In an embodiment, the crane is a leg encircling crane comprising a foot fixed to the hull, wherein the slew bearing is supported on the foot and extends about a jack-up leg of the vessel, and wherein the revolving superstructure is supported by said slew bearing.
In an embodiment, the main boom section comprises a pair of boom legs, which are connected at said upper end to each other via a head structure of the main boom section, e.g. said head structure supporting a whip hoist member extending beyond said main boom section in a central plane of the main boom section, and wherein said jib is pivotally connected to said head structure of the main boom section.
In an embodiment, in the boom parking routine, the main boom section is aligned with a jack-up leg of the vessel and is lowered over said jack-up leg so that in the parking position the boom legs of the main boom section are on opposite sides of said jack-up leg.
In an embodiment, the jib member comprises a triangular jib member frame, said jib sheave assembly being mounted at a tip end of said triangular jib member frame, wherein a base of the triangular jib member frame is pivotally connected to the head structure of the main boom section.
-4- In an embodiment, the jib structure comprises a jib strut frame having a pair of radial jib strut members each extending radially from a respective transverse end portion of the head of the main boom section and being pivotally connected to the head of the main boom section.
In an embodiment the method further comprises a hoisting step, wherein the crane is used to lift an object at an offshore location, e.g. a component of an offshore wind turbine. The present invention also relates to a marine vessel as disclosed herein.
The present invention also relates to a marine vessel according to claim 11, wherein the boom is movable, in a boom parking routine, from a hoisting position into the parking position, wherein said boom parking routine comprises: a. bringing the boom in a raised intermediate position wherein the boom main section is remote from the boom rest and the jib sheave assembly is vertically above the fastening assembly; b. paying out the hoist cable and thereby lowering the object suspension device suspended from the hoisting cable below the jib sheave assembly, said lowering being continued until the object suspension device reaches the fastening assembly, c. fastening the object suspension device to the fastening assembly, d. lowering the main boom section towards the boom rest by means of the luffing assembly combined with hauling in the hoist cable, and possibly also combined with operating the variable length stay mechanism, so that the tip end of the jib member is pulled towards the fastening assembly, until the main boom section rests on the boom rest in the parking position of the boom. In an embodiment, the vessel further comprises a jib tip end support device in proximity of the fastening assembly for the object suspension device, wherein the boom parking routine comprises bringing the tip end of the jib member into load bearing engagement with the jib tip end support device, so that in the parking position of the boom a part of the weight of the boom rests on the boom rest and a part of the weight of the boom rests on the jib tip end support device. In an embodiment, the fastening assembly, and possibly also the jib tip end support device, are located closer to the slew bearing than the upper end of the main boom section in the parking position thereof on the boom rest, so that the jib member extends from the inner end thereon inwards relative to the main boom section.
