Abstract

Floatation tanks are usually designed in gravity jacket, which can provide enough floatation and make sure the accurate location of jackets during offshore installation of gravity jacket. Floatation tanks have the following characteristic: major diameter, thin thickness and there are large of internal stiffeners inside of floatation tanks to make sure structural strength of floatation tanks. It causes much difficulty to site fabrication and installation because of above characteristic. This paper briefly describes how to fabricate and install of floatation tanks, which will be helpful to fabricate and assembly this type of structures.
