Method statement overview
5 phases in float-over sequence– Stand off– Docking– Mating– Vertical load transfer– Un-docking
Stand off position
Barge moored with anchorsDocking lines
Tug 1Tug 2
Docking
Cow horns for entry
Fendering for tight fit
Mating (1)
Mating lines forprecise positioningLoad transfer by
Ballasting and Leg Mating Units
Mating
Vertical load transfer
Load transfer on jacket
Undocking
Undocking with tugsand docking lines

Environmental issues
Workability is governed by Seastate HeaveWeather outlook (i.e. window length)
Accepting lower workability reduces design forces

Conclusions
Float-over is complicated, but feasibleRelationship between components require T&I contractor input in FEED studyFew vessels available for topsides > 10,000 mT
