The lifting slings used can be adjusted on-site according to the actual situation. Figure 8 1-2-3-4 is the tightening sequence of the turntable fixing bolts.

[0055] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method for installing a rotary table on a drilling vessel, based on a rotary table base 10 and a rotary table 20. The method for installing the rotary table includes:

[0056] S101, Adjust the leveling pad 1 on the rotary table base 10 of the drilling vessel to form an installation plane within the predetermined tolerance range.

[0057] This step provides a specific procedure for adjusting the leveling pad 1. In this step, a mounting surface needs to be formed within a predetermined tolerance range. Multiple leveling pads 1 are used, and their specific arrangement will be disclosed later; it will not be repeated here.

[0058] S102, set the stop block 2 in the translation direction according to the outer contour of the turntable 20, and adjust the height of the stop block 2.

[0059] In this step, a stop block 2 is provided around the turntable 20 to limit the horizontal movement of the turntable 20.

[0060] S103, the leveling pad 1 is welded to the rotary table base 10 of the drilling vessel, and the flatness and levelness of the mounting surface are adjusted.

[0061] This step provides a specific procedure for fixing and welding the leveling pad 1.

[0062] S104, Install turntable 20 according to the limiting positions of leveling pad 1 and stop block 2.

[0063] This step provides a specific procedure for final leveling based on the mounting plane of the leveling pad 1 and the stop 2, and for ensuring that the stop 2 restricts the degree of freedom of horizontal movement.

[0064] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for installing a rotary table on a drilling vessel. Before installation, tools and fixtures are prepared and fabricated, with the load-bearing fixtures required to pass inspection before use. The welding accuracy of the upper plane of the rotary table base structural beam is checked to determine the theoretical position of the rotary table leveling shims. If necessary, the structure can be modified to meet the equipment installation requirements. If the leveling shim 1 is too thick (i.e., its height), the length of the rotary table's fixing bolts will be insufficient. The height of the stop block 2 should be flush with the upper surface of the equipment base after welding. If the stop block 2 is too high, it will affect the installation and disassembly of the rotary table's anchor bolts. In addition to the aforementioned rotary table 20 and rotary table base 10 structures, the main iron drilling track on the table and the main iron drilling track on the drilling platform must be aligned and flush.

[0065] Installation tools and standard consumables.

[0066] The main tools and commonly used consumables are listed in the table below:

[0067]

[0068] In addition to the basic installation process, safety and construction constraints should also be established beforehand:

[0069] I. Safety Requirements

[0070] 1. Before starting work, construction workers must wear appropriate safety protective equipment.

[0071] 2. Touch-up painting, hot work, hoisting and other operations must be planned in advance and carried out in accordance with the installation requirements.

[0072] 3. A scaffolding platform must be erected in the area below the turntable and used only after it has passed inspection.

[0073] 4. During hot work operations, fireproof cloth must be laid on the scaffolding platform below the turntable.

[0074] 5. All tools used must meet the installation requirements, and load-bearing fixtures must be inspected and approved before use.

[0075] 6. Before construction, coordinate with the surrounding areas for cross-operations, such as cross-operations around the upper derrick area, the lower drilling platform reverse area, the moon pool area, etc., as well as nearby pipeline pressure testing, flaw detection and other operations, to avoid mutual interference.

[0076] 7. A warning line should be set up in the area where the turntable is installed, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter. In particular, after the turntable is placed on the turntable beam, temporary protection should be set up in the gaps around the turntable and in the opening in the middle of the turntable to prevent people from falling.

[0077] 8. After the turntable is installed, and before the filler core is installed, a guardrail or cover plate must be installed at the turntable opening to prevent people from falling into the turntable opening.

[0078] II. Construction Conditions

[0079] 1. The ship's drilling rig structure has been installed and handed over for inspection.

[0080] 2. Once the well center baseline on the drilling platform is marked, well center baseline points A and B are set on the front and back sides of the drilling platform structure for use when positioning the rotary table. The heights of baseline points A and B can be determined on-site according to the actual situation, and the relevant values ​​are recorded.

[0081] 3. Equipment unpacking inspection and installation information verification completed.

[0082] 4. All relevant tools and fixtures are ready.

[0090] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for hoisting and finally fixing the turntable 20. Before the derrick is installed, the turntable is pre-hoisted to the drilling platform and placed near the turntable installation position or directly on the turntable support beam. The hoisting state is normal hoisting; lateral or reverse hoisting of the equipment is prohibited.

[0091] The specific steps are as follows:

[0092] a) Before hoisting, check whether the eye rings are tightened, whether the slings are damaged or otherwise abnormal, and whether the hook and sling certificates are complete;

[0093] b) Remove the turntable filler core before installing the turntable and store it properly;

[0094] c) Refer to the turntable installation diagram for the turntable placement location;

[0095] d) Before lifting, check whether the equipment accessories and other items on the equipment are loose or have fallen off. If there are any problems, they should be dealt with in time to prevent items from falling during the lifting process.

[0096] e) Carefully inspect the surrounding environment to ensure personnel safety during the hoisting process;

[0097] f) When lifting the turntable, first lift it about 150mm off the ground and check whether the turntable is in a horizontal and stable state. If necessary, adjust the length of the slings. After confirming that everything is correct, continue the lifting operation.

[0098] In one embodiment, before the step of adjusting the leveling shim 1 on the rotary table base 10 of the drilling vessel, the method further includes:

[0099] The installation reference for turntable 20 is calibrated.

[0100] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for calibrating the installation reference of the turntable 20, wherein the installation reference can be a crosshair method or a horizontal plane reference point.

[0101] In one embodiment, fixing the turntable 20 to the turntable 20 after removing the turntable cover plate 201 using the lifting lug 202 to complete the placement of the turntable 20 includes:

[0104] S302, Align with the installation reference calibrated by the turntable 20 and the alignment reference of the drilling vessel turntable base 10, and ensure that the alignment is within the predetermined deviation.

[0105] This step provides a specific procedure for aligning the rotary table 20 with the alignment reference of the rotary table base 10 of the drilling vessel, ensuring that the alignment is within a predetermined deviation.

[0106] S303, Spot weld the stop block 2 to fix it.

[0107] This step provides a specific procedure for spot welding and fixing the stop block 2.

[0108] S304, reinstall the turntable cover 201 onto the turntable 20.

[0110] S305, drill holes at the bolt 3 fixing position of turntable 20 and fix it with bolt 3.

[0111] This step provides a specific procedure for drilling holes at the bolt 3 fixing position of the turntable 20 and fixing it with the bolt 3.

[0112] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for placing the turntable 20 by fixing it to the turntable 20 after removing the turntable cover plate 201 using the lifting lug 202.

[0113] Turntable cover hoisting

[0114] For ease of installation, the turntable cover can be temporarily lifted before installation; remove the cover's mounting bolts, and then lift the turntable cover. During lifting, use inching motions to slowly raise the cover, ensuring all connecting bolts have been removed.

[0115] In one embodiment, after drilling holes at the bolt 3 fixing positions on the turntable 20 and fixing it with bolt 3, the method further includes:

[0116] After repositioning the turntable 20 and the turntable base 10 of the drilling vessel, the lifting equipment was removed.

[0117] hoisting after the turntable cover is removed

[0118] Install the lifting eye rings into the screw holes below the cover plate, ensuring that all eye rings are tightened, and at the same time ensure lifting safety according to the above-mentioned turntable lifting requirements.

[0119] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for removing the lifting device after re-correcting the position of the turntable 20 and the turntable base 10 of the drilling vessel.

[0120] In one embodiment, the preload of bolt 3 is less than 70% of the allowable stress when it is fixed.

[0121] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method in which the preload force of bolt 3 is less than 70% of the allowable stress when it is fixed.

[0122] In one embodiment, after the bolt 3 is fixed, it is left to stand for 24 hours before being tightened again.

[0123] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for tightening bolt 3 again after it has been fixed for 24 hours.

[0124] In one embodiment, the predetermined deviation is less than 2.5 mm, and the flatness and the levelness are within the range of ±0.5 mm.

[0125] This embodiment provides a specific implementation of the predetermined deviation, and the flatness and levelness within the range of ±0.5mm.

[0126] In one embodiment, after the step of spot welding and fixing the stop block 2, the method further includes:

[0127] Temporary guide blocks and positioning blocks are used during installation to assist in the positioning of the turntable.

[0128] This embodiment provides a specific implementation method for using temporary guide blocks and positioning blocks to assist in the positioning of the turntable during installation.

[0129] In one embodiment, the leveling pad 1 includes a first leveling pad 11 and a second leveling pad 12, which are laid flat on the rotary table base 10 of the drilling vessel.

[0130] The stop block 2 includes a first set of stop blocks 21 and a second set of stop blocks 22;

[0131] The first set of stops 21 are located on both sides of the turntable 20 to limit the movement of the turntable 20 in the first direction;

[0132] The second set of stops 22 are located on the other two sides of the turntable 20 to limit the movement of the turntable 20 in the second direction.

[0133] This embodiment provides a specific implementation with a first leveling pad 11 and a second leveling pad 12. The first leveling pad 11 consists of eight pads arranged on the left and right sides respectively. Taking a horizontal plane coordinate system as an example, four are on the left, arranged along the Y direction and symmetrically with respect to the X-axis. After symmetry along the X-axis, two are positioned above and below. The second leveling pad 12 consists of two pads, one on the Y-axis and one above and one below the X-axis, ultimately forming a quadrilateral enclosed by the first leveling pad 11 and the second leveling pad 12. The first set of stops 21 consists of four blocks, divided into two opposing groups vertically. The second set of stops 22 also consists of four blocks, divided into two opposing groups horizontally, ultimately forming limits in the X and Y axis directions.

[0134] The following is a detailed explanation of the turntable installation process:

[0135] 1) Clean the surface of the turntable beam and pad, complete the touch-up painting work on the turntable beam area except for the upper surface of the pad, and ensure the cleanliness of the mounting surface on the back of the turntable. If there is any paint damage in other parts of the equipment, it needs to be touched up according to the paint specifications.

[0136] 2) Slowly lift the turntable to the leveling pad. When the turntable is close to the pad, adjust the position of the turntable. At this time, the weight of the turntable is still borne by the lifting sling.

[0137] 3) When the center line of the rotary table equipment coincides with the center line of the drilling rig, i.e., the deviation between the center crosshair of the rotary table and the center crosshair of the drilling rig is ≤2.5mm, lower the rotary table. After confirming that there is no error, place stop block I and stop block II in place and spot weld them in place. Temporary guide blocks and positioning blocks can be used to assist in the positioning of the rotary table during installation. They need to be removed after the installation and positioning are completed.

[0138] 4) Lift the turntable cover plate and install the lifting ring into the screw hole under the turntable cover plate, then tighten the lifting ring.

[0139] 5) Mark the drilling positions for the turntable fixing bolts.

[0140] 6) Based on the determined screw hole positions, use a magnetic drill to drill the turntable fixing bolt holes. The through holes should pass through the leveling pad and the turntable beam panel. If necessary, the turntable can be lifted to facilitate the drilling operation.

[0141] 7) Clean the turntable mounting base and the mounting bolt positions on the back of the turntable beam again, removing burrs, iron filings, rust and other debris.

[0142] 8) Hoist the turntable back to the installation position and slowly lower it until the fixed position of the turntable coincides with the position during inspection. Place the 8.8 grade fixing bolts into the bolt holes. Apply EP2 type grease before inserting the bolts. Install the washers and nuts in sequence, and initially tighten the fixing bolts until the nuts contact the washers.

[0143] 9) Double-check the center position of the turntable and the installation height of the upper surface. Once confirmed, remove the lifting equipment.

[0144] 10) The preload of the turntable fixing bolts shall not exceed 70% of the bolt's allowable stress and shall be tightened in two steps. The tightening sequence shall be diagonal and progressive (e.g., port bow position → starboard stern position → port stern position → starboard bow position).

[0145] 11) Step 2 completes the final tightening, and the tightening sequence is the same as in Step 1; however, the tightening operation in Step 2 must be left for 24 hours after Step 1 is completed before the final tightening operation is performed. After tightening, use a marker to mark the position of the nut.

[0146] 12) Clean the area around the turntable, remove oil stains, debris, temporary work clothes, etc., and touch up the paint as needed.

[0147] 13) Reinstall the turntable cover, remove the turntable lifting equipment, and set up temporary fences and other safety facilities at the turntable opening to prevent people from falling.

[0148] 14) Connect the hydraulic lines to the turntable drive motor. The turntable installation is now complete.

[0149] This invention outlines the construction conditions and safety precautions for installing a rotary table on a ship, clarifying the required installation accuracy. It comprehensively describes the preparatory work, installation process, tools, and common consumable materials. The technical solution provides significant guidance for rotary table installation.

[0150] 1. Verified on actual ships, this installation method is safe, reliable, and highly operable.

[0151] 2. The turntable is installed in place in one go, and the deviation between the center crosshair of the turntable and the crosshair of the well center is ≤

[0152] The turntable's flatness and levelness are within ±0.5mm, eliminating the need for repeated corrections.

[0153] 3. This technical solution can be used as a reference for the installation of turntables on similar engineering vessels and offshore platforms.

[0154] 4. Block 2 not only prevents the turntable from shifting horizontally, but also solves the problem of quick positioning when the turntable is disassembled and reinstalled.
