20100172698 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF A HYDROELECTRIC TURBINE - The present invention is concerned with a system and method for the deployment of a hydroelectric turbine, and comprises a base and vessel beneath which the base can be secured, and to which base, from above deck, a hydroelectric turbine can be secured to the base and subsequently released with the base from the vessel. | 07-08-2010 |
20120219364 | VESSEL AND METHOD FOR TRANSPORTING AND HOISTING THE OFFSHORE WIND TURBINE GENERATOR SYSTEM - A vessel for transporting and hoisting offshore wind turbine includes a hull, fixing brackets, first sliding rails, second sliding rails, a buffer device, rotary cranes and winch devices. A U-shaped opening is provided at the stern of the hull for a wind turbine to pass through. The fixing brackets are arranged in two rows in parallel, and their bottoms are fixed onto the deck in the hull. The second sliding rails are in parallel with the first sliding rails. A hanging beam slidably matched with the first sliding rails is installed on the body of the wind turbine. The buffer device is fixed to the bottom of the wind turbine. The rotary cranes are fixed on the top of two sides of the U-shaped opening. The winch devices are installed on the stern of the hull. An offshore wind turbine transporting and hoisting method using the vessel is also disclosed. | 08-30-2012 |
20150132066 | SUBSEA PLATFORM TRANSPORTER (SPT) - A subsea platform transporter includes a plurality of pontoon members, a plurality of column members interconnecting select adjacent ones of the plurality of pontoon members forming a support frame having an inner platform receiving area, a plurality of buoyancy members mechanically linked to at least one of the plurality of pontoon members and the plurality of column members, and a plurality of platform retaining members mounted to one or more of the plurality of pontoon members and the plurality of column members about the inner platform receiving area. The plurality of platform retaining members is configured and disposed to selectively retain and release a platform supported by the subsea platform transporter. | 05-14-2015 |
20150316675 | OFFSHORE SEISMIC MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD - System and method for monitoring a reservoir underwater. The system includes plural nodes, each having a seismic sensor for detecting seismic waves; a remote operated vehicle (ROV) configured to deploy or retrieve the plural nodes to seabed; and an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) configured to monitor and exchange data with the plural nodes. At least one node of the plural nodes has a head that houses the seismic sensor and the head is configured to burrow in the seabed, up to a predetermined depth, and the head remains in electrical contact through a connector with a base of the at least one node. | 11-05-2015 |
20150322639 | VARIABLE-DRAFT BARGE, AND SYSTEM AND METHOD OF TRANSFERRING LOADS FROM THE BARGE TO A SUPPORTING STRUCTURE IN A BODY OF WATER - A variable-draft barge configured to transfer loads in a body of water, and having a water line which is a function of the draft; the barge having: a hull; an underbody; at least one first chamber located in the hull and floodable selectively to alter the draft of the barge; at least one flood valve located below the water line to flood the first chamber; and a control device configured to selectively open the flood valve to flood the first chamber. | 11-12-2015 |
