Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drilling equipment for marine vessels, and relates to a new type of moon pool cover for drilling vessels. Background technique
[0002] When conducting oilfield exploration and production in the ocean, it is necessary to lower the drill string and various underwater equipment (submarine base plate, etc.) through the ocean drilling ship, so that they can enter below the water surface and reach the seabed. At the same time, a sea passage that can penetrate the main hull—the Moon Pool is required. In order to meet the needs of different equipment operations. The setting of the moon pool facilitates underwater operations. However, some water equipment also needs to be operated on the deck level of the moon pool area. Especially when drilling, it is necessary to connect the pipe string in the center (wellhead) area of the moon pool. And other related drilling operations, which requires the closure of the ...
