Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of ship technology, and in particular to a method for manufacturing a hull of an oil tanker on a platform line. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the shipbuilding industry, efficient construction and lean management have become key factors in enhancing the industry's competitiveness. In the field of platform-line oil tanker construction, the current mainstream construction method relies on the lifting capacity of cranes to assemble several sections, which are then lifted to the platform line for assembly and loading. This construction model, by directly utilizing crane resources, has achieved a certain degree of standardization in the construction process, meeting the basic requirements of structural assembly during shipbuilding. It has played a vital role in past shipbuilding projects and has long been a traditional construction method used by many shipyards.

[0003] However, a closer look at this construction method reveals its drawbacks. First, the large number of sections that must be pre-assembled into master blocks results in a high number of master blocks being hoisted to the platform line, severely exacerbating the shortage of crane resources on the platform line. Frequent crane operation not only reduces equipment efficiency but also increases maintenance costs and safety hazards. Second, numerous welds between master blocks are concentrated on the platform line for welding and polishing, exponentially increasing the workload during this phase, slowing the platform line's production pace and hindering overall construction progress. Furthermore, insufficient attention to the integrity of cabins and outfitting during the early assembly phase resulted in a significant backlog of installation and commissioning work on the platform line and at the dock, significantly extending the construction period and increasing the investment in manpower and material resources. Furthermore, the increased demand for master block hoisting and platform line operations has significantly impacted the allocation and use of other construction resources, such as hanging baskets used for aerial work, further hindering the smooth and coordinated operation of multiple trades. These intertwined problems not only affect the efficiency and quality of oil tanker construction, but also lead to rising construction costs, making it difficult for traditional construction methods to adapt to the shipbuilding industry's growing demand for efficient and low-cost construction.

Refer to Figure 2 As shown, the arrow direction in the figure is the direction from the stern to the bow. Figure 2 Taking the front wall 100 of the engine room as the boundary, the front wall 100 of the engine room divides the total section 200 of the engine room bottom, the upper platform total section 300 of the engine room located above the total section 200 of the engine room bottom, the stern section 400 of the engine room located behind the total section 200 of the engine room bottom and the upper platform total section 300 of the engine room, the front island total section 500 and the rear island total section 600 located on the deck towards the stern. Referring to Figure 2 As shown, the front wall 100 of the engine room divides the first annular total section, the second annular total section, the third annular total section and the fourth annular total section in sequence towards the bow, a total of four annular total sections.

[0024] Regarding step S200, the total section 200 of the engine room bottom, the upper platform total section 300 of the engine room, the stern section 400 of the engine room, the front island total section 500 and the rear island total section 600 are respectively assembled on the ground. After the above-mentioned total sections are assembled, they are hoisted to the platform line for closure docking. It should be noted here that in step S200, the front island total section 500 and the rear island total section 600 are not involved first. After the four annular total sections 700 are docked and closed, the front island total section 500 and the rear island total section 600 are hoisted to the platform line for closure docking. For details, refer to step S500. Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of the closure of the total section in the engine room area in an embodiment of the present application. Refer to Figure 3As shown, the after half of the ship is formed after the mating of the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200, the engine room upper platform sub - assembly 300, and the engine room aft sub - assembly 400.

[0025] Furthermore, step S200 includes sub - steps: S210, perform overall assembly of the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200, the engine room upper platform sub - assembly 300, the engine room aft sub - assembly 400, the front island sub - assembly 500, and the rear island sub - assembly 600 on the ground respectively.

[0026] S220, hoist the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200 and the engine room upper platform sub - assembly 300 to the platform line in sequence.

[0027] S230, perform mating and docking of the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200 and the engine room upper platform sub - assembly 300 located at the upper end of the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200, which can refer to the direction indicated by the arrow in Figure 3 as shown.

[0028] S240, hoist the engine room aft sub - assembly 400 to the platform line.

[0029] S250, perform mating and docking of the engine room aft sub - assembly 400 with the engine room bottom sub - assembly 200 and the engine room upper platform sub - assembly 300 located at the front end of the engine room aft sub - assembly 400 to form the after half of the ship, which can refer to the direction indicated by the arrow in Figure 3 as shown.

[0030] Figure 4 shows the overall assembly schematic diagram of the annular sub - assembly in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 4 the annular sub - assembly 700 structurally includes: bottom section 710, bilge section 720, longitudinal bulkhead section 730, transverse bulkhead section 740, side shell section 750, and deck section 760. Regarding the process of overall assembly of the annular sub - assembly 700 on the ground, specifically referring to the steps, S300 includes sub - steps: S310, hoist the bottom section 710 to the designated position on the ground and fix it using a temporary support device, with the bottom section 710 as the positioning section. The temporary support device involved here is removed in a timely manner after the overall assembly of the annular sub - assembly 700 is completed.

[0031] S320, hoist two bilge sections 720 to both sides of the bottom section 710, and perform docking, mating, and welding of the bilge section 720 and the bottom section 710.

[0032] S330. Lift and install the longitudinal bulkhead section 730 and the transverse bulkhead section 740 into the enclosed area of the bilge section 720 and the bottom section 710. Weld and fix the longitudinal bulkhead section 730 to the bottom section 710, and weld and fix the transverse bulkhead section 740 to the bilge section 720 and the bottom section 710. Since the hull part of the ring block 700 is not yet enclosed, it is more convenient to install the longitudinal bulkhead section 730 and the transverse bulkhead section 740, which are the internal structures of the cabin, at this time.

[0033] S340. Lift and install the two side shell sections 750 above the two bilge sections 720 respectively, and carry out butt joint welding between the side shell section 750 and the bilge section 720. At this time, the ring-shaped part of the ring block 700 has been enclosed and formed. After the two side shell sections 750 are butted and joined together, attention should also be paid to welding and fixing the positions where the side shell section 750 needs to be connected to the transverse bulkhead section 740.

[0034] S350. Lift and install the deck section 760 above the side shell section 750, and weld and fix the deck section 760 to the side shell section 750 to complete the overall enclosure of the ring block 700. When installing the deck section 760, attention should also be paid to welding and fixing the positions where the deck section 760 needs to be connected to the longitudinal bulkhead section 730 and the transverse bulkhead section 740.

[0035] S370. Conduct airtightness detection on all welds between the bottom section 710, the bilge section 720, the side shell section 750, the deck section 760, the longitudinal bulkhead section 730 and the transverse bulkhead section 740 to meet the airtightness standard. If the airtightness requirement is not met, adjustments should be made in a timely manner until the airtightness requirement is met. In addition, the cabins also need to be timely detected for airtightness and meet the airtightness standard. If the airtightness requirement is not met, adjustments should also be made in a timely manner until the airtightness requirement is met.

[0036] S360. Install the outfitting parts inside the ring block 700. In addition, it should be noted that the external plate paint of the ring block 700 also needs to be painted as required.

[0037] So far, the overall assembly of one ring block 700 on the ground has been completed. The remaining three ring blocks 700 can be repeated with reference to the above sub-steps and will not be elaborated here.

[0038] Among them, step S400 includes sub-steps: S410. The modular transporter 1000 loads the ring block 700.

[0039] S420. The modular transporter 1000 transports the annular section 700 to a position where the mating opening of the annular section 700 is opposite to the target mating opening, and positions the annular section 700.

[0040] S430. The modular transporter 1000 unloads and places the annular section 700 onto the dock pier 800 and the support structure 900. Reference can be made here to Figure 5 and Figure 6 as shown, Figure 5 which shows the state where the modular transporter 1000 unloads and places the first annular section onto the dock pier 800 and the support structure 900. Figure 6 which shows the states where the modular transporter 1000 unloads and places the second annular section, the third annular section, and the fourth annular section onto the dock pier 800 and the support structure 900. The layout positions of the dock pier 800, the support structure 900, and the modular transporter 1000 involved in the figure are for reference only and are not limited by this, and can be adjusted according to actual process requirements.

[0041] S440. Mate and weld the mating opening of the annular section 700 with the target mating opening. It should be noted here that when the first annular section is mated and welded, its corresponding target mating opening is the mating opening of the stern half ship, and when the second annular section, the third annular section, and the fourth annular section are mated and welded, their corresponding target mating openings are the mating opening of the first annular section, the mating opening of the second annular section, and the mating opening of the third annular section respectively.

[0042] Further, sub-step S410 includes sub-sub-steps: S411. Trim the surplus at the mating opening of the annular section 700.

[0043] S412. Use the lifting equipment to lift the annular section 700 to a preset height.

[0044] S413. The modular transporter 1000 is slowly lifted synchronously with the lifting equipment until it abuts against the annular section 700, and then the lifting equipment retracts, completing the transfer of the annular section 700 onto the modular transporter 1000 to realize the movement of the annular section 700 by the modular transporter 1000.

[0045] Further, sub-step S420 includes sub-sub-steps: S421. The module transport vehicle 1000 carries the annular segment 700 to a first calibration position in a direction close to the target closing opening, and performs a first position calibration on the annular segment 700. The first calibration position is a position where the closing opening of the annular segment 700 is 8m to 12m away from the target closing opening. Preferably, the first calibration position is a position where the closing opening of the annular segment 700 is 10m away from the target closing opening. It should be noted that the first position calibration can be performed by raising or lowering the module transport vehicle 1000 and simultaneously coordinating with the total station to measure and adjust the level of the segment.

[0046] S422: The module transporter 1000 continues to carry the annular segment 700 toward the target closing opening, and continuously adjusts the centerline of the annular segment 700 during the movement. It should be noted that the total station measurement is used to coordinate the movement of the module transporter 1000 so as to adjust the centerline of the annular segment 700 during the movement.

[0047] S423, the module transport vehicle 1000 carries the annular total segment 700 to the second calibration position in the direction close to the target closing mouth, and performs a second position calibration on the annular total segment 700; wherein, the second calibration position is a position where the closing mouth of the annular total segment 700 is 40mm to 60mm away from the target closing mouth. Preferably, the second calibration position is a position where the closing mouth of the annular total segment 700 is 50mm away from the target closing mouth. It should be noted here that the module transport vehicle 1000 stops when it moves to the second calibration position, and remeasures the calibration contents involved in the second position calibration, such as the center line of the annular segment, the bow end angle square, and the deck surface level, to meet the accuracy control requirements.

[0048] Wherein, sub-step S430 includes sub-steps: S431 , horizontally adjust the dock 800 and the support structure 900 , and adjust the heights of the dock 800 and the support structure 900 to a preset height.

[0049] S432: The module transporter 1000 descends to a preset height so that the annular segment 700 is placed on the dock 800 and the support structure 900. It is important to note that the clearance between the closing opening of the annular segment 700 and the target closing opening must be checked to see if it meets the preset requirements, and whether there is any structural misalignment between the closing opening of the annular segment 700 and the target closing opening. Only after confirmation can the subsequent steps be carried out.

[0050] S433: Weld a temporary support structure 900 on the annular segment 700 to constrain the annular segment 700. The temporary support structure 900 may be a support rail.

[0051] S434. The modular transporter 1000 continues to descend until it is separated from the annular sub-assembly 700, so as to unload the annular sub-assembly 700 onto the dock piers 800 and the support structure 900. It should be noted here that the modular transporter 1000 is withdrawn only after checking that the annular sub-assembly 700 is in normal condition.
