The Oilfield Seamanship Series: Volume 2 | Jack-UP Moving
Year: 1993 Language: English Author: Michael Hancox Genre: Textbook Publisher: Oilfield Publications ISBN: 1 870945 417 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 327 Description: The jack-up barge, in its several forms and functions has been a most successful work platform. The afloat periods of jack-up- barges are of little economic benefit to the owner as the unit cannot function and therefore generate revenue. To design the craft to withstand the full forces of the sea yet still carry out its operational function inevitably results in some compromise usually erring on the side of operational function and it is this compromise which makes jack-up units so vulnerable to the natural perils of the sea This book is aimed at those personnel who require an insight into how these vessels should be Operated afloat with some confidence, positioned at their work site and prepared for working in the elevated position and then removed to another location. It tries to reflect what is best practice and is not vessel type specific - although generally reflects the more common independent leg jack-up. The author is indebted to those tool ushers, barge engineers, warranty surveyors and tow masters (many of whose ideas are included) who have freely given their experience and knowledge. As jack-up units, especially the newest drilling vessels, move into ever deeper locations and arc positioned in more hostile waters than ever before, best practice and considerable skills are required, which cannot be neglected or compensated for by engineered hardware.
