An uncrossed-braced, column stabilized semi-submersible and improved methods of operation of the same are disclosed. The semi-submersible vessel provides necessary strength to resist hydrodynamic forces via a unitized support system. Improved elliptically shaped columns (23, 24, 31, 32), haunch supports (25, 26, 33, 34) and reinforcing members (54, 55, 56) provide stability and resist transverse forces. A skirt (72) design minimizes the reduced stability at the transition point. Improved deck (28, 29) designs reduce environmental impacts and provide additional support against transverse forces.
La présente invention concerne une plate-forme semi-submersible non étrésillonnée et des procédés de mise en oeuvre perfectionnés. Cette plate-forme semi-submersible fournit une résistance suffisante pour résister aux forces hydrodynamiques grâce à un système de support unifié. La forme elliptique améliorée des piles (23, 24, 31, 32), des supports à renforts (25, 26, 33, 34) et des éléments de renfort (54, 55, 56) assurent la stabilité et résistent aux forces transversales. Un dessin de jupe (72) minimise la réduction de stabilité au point de transition. Des dessins améliorés du pont (28, 29) réduisent l'impact de l'environnement et assurent un complément de support contre les forces transversales.
