Definitions

  • This invention relates to apparatus for maintenance of oil rigs and in particular to maintenance of offshore oil rig legs .
  • oil rig will be used to encompass all drilling rigs and includes both rigs for drilling for oil and for gas .
  • Offshore oil rigs are subject to the effects , both of extremes in weather conditions , and of the sea on the oil rig legs .
  • the major length of the oil rig leg lying beneath the water is inspected and maintained by divers .
  • the legs have to be inspected so that they can be cleaned and repaired if they start rusting .
  • apparatus for maintenance of a length of an oil rig leg in situ comprising a sleeve like vessel for surrounding a given length of an oil rig leg, and including a releasable leg clamp for detachably clamping the vessel to the oil rig leg;
  • the sleeve-like vessel consisting of at least two pieces which are clamped together by clamps which are capable of being released to allow separation of the two pieces to allow removal of the vessel from the oil rig leg, the vessel being arranged to define a space between the leg and the inner wall of the vessel , which extends around the periphery of the leg and is large enough to allow an operator to access the whole surface of the given length of the leg to maintain it, and the vessel also including a base at its lower end which spans the space between the inner wall of the vessel and the surface of the leg; the apparatus also including an entrance to allow entry of an operator into the vessel , and a pump f r pumping water out of an opening in the vessel .
  • the two pieces of the vessel may be lowered into the water and placed around an oil rig leg at a point where the leg Is to be maintained .
  • the two pieces are clamped together to form a rigid body and the whole arrangement is clamped to the oil rig leg.
  • the pump is then operated to pump water out of the vessel and the operator can then enter into the vessel to inspect and maintain the oil rig leg.
  • the top of the vessel may be open so that an operator may simply climb into the vessel over the top edge .
  • a pressurised container serving as a lid is attachable to the top of the vessel to seal it completely from the outer elements . This would mean that an operator could climb into the vessel , close the lid and then be completely protected from the outside elements whilst inspecting and cleaning the legs .
  • the vessel also includes an integral top which spans the space between its inner wall and the leg.
  • the operator entrance includes a sealable manway in the top of the vessel comprising a cylin ⁇ drical opening into the vessel having a lockable flap lid.
  • the flap lid includes sealing means to ensure that no water can enter the vessel when an operator is working within.
  • a ladder extends up the inner wall of the vessel to allow the operator to climb up and down the vessel to access different areas of the oil rig leg.
  • the vessel includes intermediate platforms which extend around the inner wall of the vessel to allow the operator to stand at different levels to inspect and clean the oil rig legs .
  • the platforms do not extend up to the oil rig legs but leave a gap between the leg and the platform so that if the leg is being cleaned , for example by a blasting the debris may fall between the platform and the leg to the base of the vessel where it can be pumped out using the pump to keep the vessel clean inside.
  • the intermediate platforms may be permanent platforms attached to the wall of the vessel .
  • the platforms are temporary and the vessel includes a plurality of support means at different heights within the vessel , on which the temporary platforms may be mounted . This allows greater flexibility of operation within the vessel ;
  • the platforms may, for example , be made of timber or of scaffolding.
  • the vessel is cylindrical for the' major portion of its depth between its base and top .
  • the vessel has to be made of a strong but lightweight material . Typically this material will be steel .
  • the vessel will preferably include a plurality of stiffening rings , extending about the periphery of the vessel to give added strength to the vessel .
  • the stiffening rings may extend from the outer periphery of the vessel outwards . However it is preferred that the stiffening rings extend inwardly of the periphery of the inside face of the wall of the vessel . In this case the stiffening rings may conveniently also constitute the support means for temporary intermediate platforms .
  • the stiffening rings are conveniently made of the same material as the rest of the vessel .
  • the vessel is made up of two substantially identical halves which helps reduce manufacturing costs .
  • halves are identically shaped apart from the clamping means which they include.
  • One piece may incorporate male -clamping means and the second piece include mating female clamping means .
  • each -piece includes a leg clamp for clamping each piece to the oil rig leg .

  • the apparatus may also include buoyancy rings attached to the vessel . These keep the vessel buoyant , especially when the pieces are being moved around about the leg before fitting a clamp to the leg.
  • At least one of the buoyancy rings is of adjustable buoyancy.
  • An air supply with cocks leading to the buoyancy ring may be used by which the buoyancy can be increased or decreased to raise or lower the vessel in the water . This allows for complete control of the halves of the vessel when they are being manoeuvred into position about the oil rig leg .
  • buoyancy rings may be unnecessary if the vessel body is made of a lightweight material . Moreover in some cases it is preferred that no buoyancy rings are included since they may exert unnecessary stress on the walls of the vessel .

Abstract

Dans la zone juste au-dessus et au-dessous de la surface de l'eau la houle est si intense qu'aucun plongeur ni bateau ne peut s'approcher de la zone pour nettoyer les jambes. Selon l'invention, un dispositif (1) d'entretien in situ d'une certaine longueur d'une jambe (2) de plate-forme de forage, comprenant une enceinte en forme de manchon (3) entourant une certaine longueur d'une jambe de plate-forme de forage, et comprenant également un organe de serrage libérable de la jambe permettant d'accrocher de manière libérable l'enceinte sur la jambe de la plate-forme de forage. L'enceinte en forme de manchon se compose d'au moins deux pièces (5, 6) serrées l'une contre l'autre par des organes de serrage pouvant se dégager pour permettre la séparation des deux pièces et le décrochage de l'enceinte de la jambe (2) de la plate-forme de forage, l'enceinte définissant un espace entre la jambe et la paroi interne de l'enceinte, lequel espace s'étend autour de la périphérie de la jambe et est suffisamment vaste pour permettre à un opérateur d'avoir accès à la totalité de la surface du segment donné de la jambe afin d'en assurer l'entretien; l'enceinte comprend également à son extrémité inférieure une base allant de la paroi interne de l'enceinte à la surface de la jambe. Le dispositif est également pourvu d'une entrée (11) permettant le passage de l'opérateur (10) ainsi qu'une pompe servant à évacuer l'eau par une ouverture de sortie de l'enceinte.
