METHOD TO BUILD, TRANSPORT AND ASSEMBLE SUPERSTRUCTURE ON SUPPORT PART OF MARINE OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION FACILITY IN SHALLOW WATERS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC E02B17/00 E02B17/02 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: superstructure is built on a building slip in a dock on a support deck installed on side walls of the dock. A transport barge that has taken the ballast is introduced into the dock under the superstructure, and the superstructure is installed by means of ballast pumping away from the barge on its deck with its subsequent transportation to a marine oil and gas field. A hydraulic engineering pocket is arranged in place of installation of a support part of a marine oil and gas production facility on the marine oil and gas field. Length, width and depth of the latter make it possible to lead the transport barge to the support part, to install the superstructure onto the support part after taking the ballast by the transport barge, and also to move the transport barge away from the marine oil and gas field after pumping of ballast from it.

EFFECT: invention makes it possible to eliminate using additional crane facilities for transportation and assembly of a superstructure of marine oil and gas production facilities onto a transport barge, and possibility to exclude construction of a marine channel for passage of a transport barge to an oil and gas field in shallow waters.
