Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine engineering ships, and relates to a device for reducing the navigation resistance of ships with moon pools, and is especially suitable for drilling ships with moon pool openings. Background technique
[0002] In addition to the conventional equipment required by the ship, the drilling ship also has related drilling equipment such as a derrick, and a moon pool opening for lowering the wellhead equipment. Drilling ships are capable of self-propelling, with a speed of more than 10 knots. Compared with semi-submersible drilling platforms, they are more maneuverable, have a larger waterplane area and larger variable loads, and are more suitable for deepwater drilling operations. When the drilling ship is sailing, the existence of the moon pool will additionally increase the sailing resistance. According to relevant research at home and abroad, the opening of the moon pool will increase the navigation r...
