Offshore Jacket fabrication and installation

Have a look at Ben Gerwick's book 'offshore Construction' or something like that. There ios another ref but it's slipped my mind. I'll come back later.

Hope this helps.

The other ref is W.J.Graff 'Intro to Offshore Structures'

Thanks JWB
Are these books available thro internet? Is it possible to buy old books thr internet/
i would also welcome if any web links are available related to above information
Regards
SK

Hello Sk90. They will certainly be available I would think. You could try amazon. Not sure which country you're in, but if you have a local engineering institution or university it might be an idea to try the library. The books are pretty well known.

You could also try some of the oil industry magazines which are available on the internet eg 'offshore' , the oil man etc'. you might even get quite a bit of the info you need by doing a search with a few terms out of your orig posting.

Come back if you really get stuck and I'll see what else I can find.

Best of luck.

Hi sk90,

For books check out bookfinder.com

Also try an internet search for photos.

Try the offshore-technology.com site; the projects section has lots of photos of all aspects of offshore exploration & production, for example


has a picture of the Erskine jacket on a barge....

Thanks for all the inputs
i shall be thankful for some links showing pictures or animation or video of a jacket at the time of launching into the sea from the transportation barge
Thats a great sight.
Any help is most appreciated
