Offshore Monitoring Campaign on Installation of Suction Piles in Deep Water Fields

View through CrossRef
Abstract Within the offshore industry Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC) is known for the semi-submersible crane vessels able to install offshore structures up to 14,000t. Over the last years HMC has also proven to be a leading player in the ultra deep water construction market by setting world records on installation of heaviest structures at the greatest water depths using the Deepwater Construction Vessel (DCV) Balder and Semi-Submersible Crane Vessel (SSCV) Thialf. The installed deepwater subsea structures include flowlines completed with flowline end structures, manifolds and risers. Due to the large lift capacity of the DCV Balder, Heerema Marine Contractors is ready to install these structures in deep water fields up to 3500m. For deployment of structures multiple steel wire hoist arrangements such as the Balder's deepwater crane hoist arrangement, mooring line deployment winch or the support vessel hoist wire are available. Some typical examples of deepwater structure installations performed are shown in figure 1 and 2.
