Xueping Bai

Abstract

After an introduction of the design and research of float over installation for ultra-large topside,the key technology of float over installation with the water depth 190 m and the topside weight up to 32 thousand tons is illustrated.Owning to tackling technical key problems and successful design,the development of float over installation technology from shallow sea to deep sea and from 10000-ton class topside to 30000-ton class topside has been completed.The successful design of this project promotes the development of large topside float over installation greatly.
