摘要:
A floating vessel is stabilized against a stationary object, for example a mast of an offshore wind turbine. The vessel comprises a hull, a motor for the propulsion of the vessel, a buffer body, which protrudes with respect to the hull, as well as at least one engagement arm. The engagement arm is at one end provided with an engagement member for engaging on the stationary object. First, the buffer body of the vessel is pushed against the stationary object by means of the motor. The buffer body is hereby substantially stabilized against the stationary object. Next, the engagement body engages on the stationary object while the buffer body and the stationary object remain mutually stabilized by the pushing. After this, the engagement arm is subjected to tensile load while the stationary object is engaged by the engagement member.

A system is provided for mooring a vessel against a stationary object, for example the mast of a wind turbine erected in water. The stationary object comprises at least one substantially vertical bumper bar which is attached to the stationary object by means of an extension. The vessel comprises a hull, an engine for propelling the vessel, and a buffer body which protrudes in relation to the hull. The bumper bar comprises a substantially vertical, inside guide track which substantially faces the stationary object and a substantially vertical, outside guide track which substantially faces away from the stationary object. The vessel comprises at least one engagement arm which at one end is provided with an engagement member. The engagement arm can be moved in relation to the hull between a mooring state, in which the engagement member engages on the inside guide track of the bumper bar and is vertically displaceable along this, and a release state, in which the engagement member is out of engagement with the inside guide track. The buffer body in the mooring state engages on the outside guide track of the bumper bar and is vertically displaceable along this. The inside guide track protrudes sideways in relation to an adjacent part of the extension of the bumper bar such that the engagement member of the engagement arm in the mooring state can be moved past the extension on vertical displacement along the inside guide track of the bumper bar.
摘要:
A person is transferred from an object (1) floating in a sea to a stationary object (3). The stationary object (3) comprises a support structure (8) for supporting the person. The support structure (8) can be moved between a first level and a second level. The support structure (8) is biased in a bias direction towards its second level. The object (1) floating in the sea is connected to the support structure (8) by means of a connecting member (6) when the support structure (8) is situated at its second level. The length of the connecting member (6) is adjusted by operating a driving unit (5) for moving the support structure (8) from its second level to its first level, opposite to the bias direction. Then, the length of the connecting member (6) is fixed for fixing the support structure (8) relative to the object (1) floating in the sea. As a result, the support structure (8) is moving up and down in unison with the object (1) floating in the sea. Then, the person is transferred from the object (1) floating in the sea to the support structure (8). With the support structure (8) carrying the person, the length of the connecting member (6) is adjusted by operating the driving unit (5) for moving the support structure (8) back from its first level to its second level.
