A hoisting crane with a substantially hollow vertical column with a foot which is or can be fixed to a support, and with a top, an annular bearing structure, which extends around the vertical column and guides and carries a jib connection member, so that the jib connection member can rotate around the column, a jib connected to the jib connection member, the jib connection member forming a substantially horizontal pivot axis so that the jib can be pivoted up and down, a column top cable guide having a topping cable and hoisting cable pulley assembly, a topping winch and an associated topping cable for pivoting the jib up and down, a hoisting winch and an associated hoisting cable for hoisting a load; wherein the column top cable guide is mounted via an associated rotary bearing structure at the top of the column.

Hoisting crane and vessel with such a crane

Embodied herein is a monohull vessel with a moonpool capable of being used offshore. The monohull vessel includes a moonpool and a deck level. A movable hatch is connected to topside of the moonpool and is countersunk beneath the deck level. A multipurpose tower is mounted on the monohull vessel. The monohull vessel includes an equipment handling system removably mounted on the vessel and a hoist system located inside the monohull vessel.

Multipurpose tower for monohull with moveable hatch

The invention is a multipurpose system for a drilling and well intervention made of a pivotable, slidable cantilever on a platform adapted to pivot and to slide along an x-y axis; a tower disposed on the cantilever with a mast, a hoist winch, a splittable block connected to the mast, a trolley with a holding member wherein the trolley is moveably mounted to the mast and the splittable block, and a hoist cable that passes over the mast through the splittable block to the trolley; a storage device for storing tubulars; a racking arm secured to the tower for moving tubulars; a reel with coiled tubulars; a moveable injector head for running and retrieving coiled tubulars from the reel; and a retractable trolley moveably mounted on the mast with a holding member and adapted for positioning the tubulars over a well and over an additional work area.

Multipurpose unit for drilling and well intervention

The invention is a hoisting device for a vessel a base structure provided with fixed cable blocks with pulleys; a trolley connected to a cable pulley block and a mechanism for gripping a load; a compensator a hoisting mechanism with a hoisting cable and a winch, wherein the hoisting cable is guided over the cable pulleys connected to the base structure and is adapted to move the trolley relative to the base structure with the aid of the winch; a secondary compensator with fixed cable blocks and pulleys connected to the base; a cable pulley set connected to the compensator end; a connection cable connected to a stationary section and a movable cable block with pulleys; a hoist connected to the vessel; a connecting cable guided over pulleys; and movable cable block and is adapted to move the compensator second end with the aid of the secondary hoisting mechanism.

Compensation and hoisting apparatus

The invention is a method for drilling a well and for well intervention using a multipurpose system on a pivoting, slidable cantilever on a platform to drill a well and to perform well intervention operations, wherein the method involves pulling a completion tubing out of the well; forming completion tubing segments pulled from the well; setting back the segments into a storage area; running the coiled tubulars into the well; removing used completion equipment from the well; preparing the well for new completion equipment with the coiled tubulars; pulling segments of new completion tubing from the storage area and breaking segments of new completion tubing into individual joints and removing the individual joints from the cantilever; running into the well with coiled tubulars and installing the new completion equipment; building segments from individual joints and setting the segments in the storage area; and running segments and new completion equipment into the well.

Method for using a multipurpose system

A vessel with moonpool capable of being used offshore comprising a monohull with moonpool; a multipurpose tower mounted on the vessel; an equipment handling system removably mounted on the vessel; a movable hatch installed on top of the moonpool; and a hoist system installed inside the vessel, as well as an improved multipurpose tower, a moveable hatch and modular features for the tower. The invention is also a moveable hatch and a multipurpose tower.

Multipurpose tower for monohull

A Jack Up drilling rig having a deck capable of being used offshore made of a cantilever which is mounted so as to be moveable in a first direction and a second direction, a Multi Purpose Tower fixably mounted on the cantilever, a supporting cart disposed between the cantilever and the deck of the Jack Up drilling rig, and at least four friction reducing devices, wherein the Jack-Up drilling rig is also used in methods for installing and decommissioning drilling equipment on a sub-sea well.
