Description
Towing operations in the oilfield involve the movement of semi-submersibles, jack-ups and barges as well as specialist work such as the pulling of sub-sea ploughs and submerged pipeline bundles.
This volume is mainly for Masters and officers of the tugs involved as well as Tow Masters, Marine Advisors and Warranty Surveyors.
The text is supported by diagrams and tables, both of which cover manoeuvring considerations such as turning into heavy weather. The limitations of AHTs and AHTSs are explained in the context of personnel experience, with procedural guidance given to prevent damage to towing equipment.
This book principally deals with the towing operation from the tugs viewpoint.
