Embodiment Construction

[0056] figure 1 A side view of a vessel 1 with a wind turbine 3 on board is shown. The vessel 1 carries a plurality of wind turbines 3, which is advantageous with regard to the installation time of a wind turbine park 2 of which the wind turbines 3 form a part. The ship 1 containing the wind turbine 3 is also referred to as a combined ship 1 and wind turbine 3 arrangement 2 . The wind turbine 3 is fully assembled, which facilitates offshore installation time. When wind turbines are fully assembled, they need to undergo strict requirements regarding transport, in particular regarding the maximum acceleration that the turbine 3 and more specifically the nacelle 12 can withstand. The wind turbine 3 in an upright position is connected to the vessel 1 for transport. The upright position of the wind turbine 3 is disadvantageous for the stability of the combination 2 . However, due to this disadvantage, this stability of the combined device 2 produces a high period of oscillation...

Abstract

The invention relates to a vessel for transporting a plurality of elongate structures, such as wind turbines, in the upright position, in which the vessel comprises a device for adjusting the stability and mass inertia of the vessel for influencing the vessel's own period of oscillation, in which the vessel is provided with a seafastening frame which extends along the elongate structure for connecting the elongate structure and the vessel at an elevated level.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention relates to a method for installing an upright elongated structure such as a wind turbine. The method also involves loading the wind turbine. [0002] The invention also relates to a method for transporting an upright elongated structure such as a wind turbine. [0003] The invention also relates to a vessel for transporting, loading, and / or installing an elongated structure, such as a wind turbine in an upright position. [0004] WO 03 / 066427 A1 discloses a vessel for mounting vertical structures. The vessel has a grab and lift for picking up wind turbines on shore. The fact of picking up wind turbines on the shore creates strict boundary conditions for the vessel in relation to draft and / or feasible depth. To reach the sea bottom, the vessel is lowered so that the spuds touch the sea bottom. This results in a longer installation time for the wind turbine. [0005] WO 03 / 093584 A1 discloses a vessel for operating a wind t...
