MARITIME OPERATIONS RELATIVE TO CONSTRUCTION OF LARGE CONCRETE OFFSHORE STRUCTURES

The construction of such objects is initially carried out on dry land in a building dock. Here the "Base section" is built, that is the lower part of the floating caisson and so much of the caisson walls that make it float with safe margine of freeboard. This paper will give an account of the maritime operations performed by "Norwegian Contractors Maritime Operation Group" related to construction of the Condeep platforms constructed in Stavanger and Andalsnes, Norway, and towed out to final destinations in the years 1975-76 and 77.
