Hire Case Study Piltun Project


Topsides Load-out package and personnel support for Piltun Project, Sakhalin
The Piltun-Astokhskoye-B (PA-B) is a drilling, processing and production platform extracting oil and associated gas from the Piltun reservoir. The platform is located in a water depth of 32 metres and was installed on a prepositioned concrete Gravity Base Structure in July 2007.

Hire Case Study Piltun Project

The T-shaped transport barge, measuring 190 by 92 metres, was specially built to safely carry the topsides on their 3,000km tow by sea from the fabrication yard in South Korea. Once on the site, the barge was carefully towed between the four legs of the concrete gravity base substructure. The massive topsides were then slowly and smoothly lowered over the four legs by ballasting down the transport barge. Special leg mating units built into the four legs allowed the topsides to achieve a perfect fit and acted as shock absorbers during the initial contact.

Stage 1: Quayside GBS Load Out

The semi-submersible barge is moored at Kiyanly quay and the GBS has been skidded onto the barge and sea fastened using ACEs Winches and Personnel. Final weighing is carried out prior to the GBS load out. The removable foremost stability box is lifted in place and fastened after load out. Dry tow starts after the barge is de-ballasted; towing wires are connected to tugs and the mooring wires are released.

Stage 2: Float Off Site Anchoring

The Installation barge is towed out and moored up at the float-off location utilising ACE Mooring Winches and Personnel Support; the GBS is held in position by the ACE Tether Winch System.

Stage 3: GBS Float Off

After the barge mooring and releasing of the sea fastenings, the float off operation commences. The stability boxes are outfitted with ACE Tether Winches to control the GBS when it starts floating off the barge. Both the barge and the GBS are manned during operation. The barge is then ballasted. Once the GBS is free floating, the ACE Tether Winches are slowly lowered and the GBS slowly drawn off the barge under control of the lead tow tug. The GBS is then ballasted and lowered to the seabed.
