A METHOD FOR INSTALLING SUBMERGED OIL AND GAS WELLS, AND APPARATUS FOR THE SAME

摘要

The inventions related to submerged oil and/or gas wells and particularly to a method and apparatus specially suited for use in shallow waters where the surroundings gives a risk of drifting ice destroying well equipment positioned on the seabed. According to the present invention the wells are positioned in a hollow structure (1) which is driven down into the seabed in a way so that the wells are situated in a distance below the seabed. The hollow structure (1) comprises a foundation to make it possible to use a multiwell template (5). The foundation is in a form of a base slab (4) on which the template are positioned.
