TECHNOLOGICAL OFFSHORE PLATFORM AND METHOD OF REDUCTION OF LOAD CAUSED BY ICE COVER

摘要

FIELD: technological equipment used for mining under arctic conditions. SUBSTANCE: proposed method is based on interaction of hollow watertight pylon 6 connecting above-water and underwater parts of platform and/or respective inclined sections 8 with water or ice cover. Underwater hollow watertight hull 5 interacts additionally with ice cover by means of respective additional parts, such as fine-pointed projection 7. EFFECT: reduced loads on platform hull. 10 cl, 1 dwg
