摘要: Provided herein are methods and processes for wet-towing and installing a bucket foundation or mono-bucket for a wind turbine with or without the wind turbine mounted thereto in a body of water, such as a sea, an ocean or a lake. The methods and processes utilize at least a pair of wrap buoys secured to the bucket foundation or mono-bucket where the release thereof alters buoyancy such that the bucket foundation or mono-bucket submerges to a target site in the body of water.

摘要: A method of controlling a position and/or an orientation of an elongated structure is provided. The method is a method of controlling a position and/or an orientation of an elongated structure connected via a gripper to a vessel. The method comprises the steps of: receiving force data indicative of an interaction force between the structure and the gripper; and controlling a position and/or an orientation of the structure and the vessel, in particular controlling a position and/or orientation of the structure and/or the vessel with respect to each other. The step of controlling a position and/or an orientation of the structure and the vessel comprises controlling the position and/or the orientation of the structure and the vessel on the basis of the force data.

摘要: A method and system for tensioning a hyperstatic system involves two structures connected to each other, including: a) connecting, by at least one non-adjustable tendon and at least one adjustable tendon which is formed by a tendon coupled to a cylinder in an initially retracted position, an upper structure to a lower structure which is positioned below the upper structure while maintaining zero tension in the tendons; step b) applying a force to the upper structure and/or the lower structure in order to tension each adjustable tendon and to deploy the respective cylinder thereof, the tension of each non-adjustable tendon remaining at zero; and step c) progressively increasing the force until the tension of each non-adjustable tendon reaches a threshold value which brings about a load transfer from the lower structure to the upper structure to allow the lower structure to be supported by the upper structure.

摘要: A floating body (4) for a spar-type offshore wind power generation facility floating sideways is raised by injecting ballast water at sea, by steps including a first step of decentering a center of gravity of the floating body for the spar-type offshore wind power generation facility by means of a center-of-gravity decentering device, and a second step of injecting the ballast water to raise upright the floating body for the spar-type offshore wind power generation facility. The center-of-gravity decentering device may be a weight (2) attached to an outer surface of the floating body, or a solid ballast (34) introduced in the floating body.

摘要: A semi-submersible crane vessel for use in assembling a wind turbine and for installation by means of a crane of the vessel of the assembled wind turbine on a foundation. At an assembly station, the hull of the vessel is provided with a mast-receiving well that is sunk into, or through, the hull, preferably a well that extends into, or through a support column of the hull, which well is configured to receive therein at least a portion of the mast of the wind turbine during an assembly step of the wind turbine. For example, the mast-receiving well has a depth of at least 15 meters, e.g. at least 30 meters, measured from the deck of the deckbox structure.

摘要: An assembly includes an object with a vertical height of at least 30 metres placed on a bearing frame and a motion compensation platform including a base attached to a vessel. The platform includes an x-y actuator system for rotating the bearing frame with respect to the base about an x-axis and a y-axis, a sensor system configured to detect an x-axis rotating movement, and a y-axis rotating movement, and to generate a corresponding sensor signal, as well as an x-y control system configured to adjust the position of the bearing frame with respect to the base, depending on the sensor signal. The bearing frame is supported at a vertical distance above the base by means of a three-point support having a hinged, fixed first support and hinged second and third supports which are telescopic in the longitudinal direction of the z-axis.

摘要: The pile plug (1) has independent buoyancy, high displacement and a rigid structure of the skeleton (2) and a flexible sheath (3) at least on the side surface of the plug body, while the flexible sheath constitutes an airtight container equipped with pneumatic valves (4). The sheathing material (3) of the plug (1) can be made of a material with a high friction coefficient in relation to the pile material selected from the group: natural rubber, synthetic rubber, polyurethane. Inside the cap (1) there is a pile venting pipe (14) closed with a pile venting valve (15), which connects the space inside the pile with the surroundings. Preferably, the cap (1) has a ballast load (16) internally for positioning the plug with respect to the pile and for balancing the cap horizontally and also preventing unfavourable rotation of the pile.
