    摘要: A wellhead foundation is for one or more subsea wells. The wellhead foundation has a suction foundation provided with a housing with an open bottom and a top which is closable with a top cover, and one or more pipes being attached to the housing and extending from the top of the housing and at least over a substantial part of the vertical extent of the housing towards or beyond the open bottom of the housing inside or outside of the periphery of the housing, and a straight upper portion of each pipe projecting up above the top of the housing and forming an upper well-pipe portion which forms part of a high-pressure barrier in the well. The straight upper pipe portion of each pipe is arranged parallel to the center axis of the housing. A method of establishing a subsea wellhead foundation is described as well.

    摘要: A wellhead foundation is for one or more subsea wells. The wellhead foundation has a suction foundation with a housing with an open bottom and a top which is closable with a top cover, and one or more pipes being attached to the housing and extending from the top of the housing and at least over a substantial part of the vertical extent of the housing and away from the housing at least in a vertical direction. A straight upper part of each pipe projects up above the top of the housing and forms an upper conductor-casing portion which is arranged to receive the upper well-pipe portion and forms part of a low-pressure barrier in the well. The straight upper pipe portion of each pipe is arranged parallel to the center axis of the housing. A method of establishing a subsea wellhead foundation is described as well.

    摘要: A construction method for fixing a foundation of a waterborne structure including an offshore platform to a seabed (2) is described. The foundation includes at least one hollow column (108) which incorporates a pile cap (43) at its bottom. In the method, piles (49) are driven into the seabed (2) to a design depth, and the hollow column (108) is then lowered to the seabed (2) so as to surround the pile group and be supported thereby. Concrete is cast into the bottom of the hollow column (108), wherein reinforcement steel bar (45) has been pre-installed to translate the conventional mass concrete plug into a reinforced concrete small pile cap (43) adapted to support the hollow column (108) thereon during construction. The hollow column (108) is de-watered, excessive pile length is cut, and pile cap reinforcement (47) is fixed followed by concrete casting of the pile cap (44). A platform deck is then installed and constructed on top of the now-fixed hollow column (108).

    摘要: A support structure for an offshore device is provided, including a vertical guide sleeve and three elongated guide sleeves positioned around the vertical guide sleeve, and various braces connecting the elongated sleeves and the vertical guide sleeve. The support structure also includes a transition joint including a cylindrical portion for connection to an offshore device, such as a support tower of a wind turbine assembly, and a conical portion connected to the vertical guide sleeve. To provide resistance to thrust, bending, and torsional fatigue, at least one set of braces is formed in an oval, racetrack, obround, or stadium configuration, and one or more horizontal stiffeners are positioned in the transition joint to maximize the strength of the support structure.

    摘要: Extensible shells and related methods for constructing a support pier are disclosed. An extensible shell can define an interior for holding granular construction material and define a first opening at a first end for receiving the granular construction material into the interior and a second opening at a second end. The extensible shell can be flexible such that the shell expands when granular construction material is compacted in the interior of the shell. A method may include positioning the extensible shell in the ground and filling at least a portion of the interior of the shell with the granular construction material. The granular construction material may be compacted in the interior of the extensible shell to form a support pier.
