1. LOAD OUT BY SKIDDING

2. LOAD OUT BY TRAILERS

3. LOAD OUT BY CRANE (S)

Skidding is a method feasible for items of any weight; it would be the sole

choose for super heavy structures. The system consists of a series of steel

beams, acting as track. Each skid is provided with a hydraulic jack to

control the reaction.

The Structure will be pulled to the barge by strand-jacks system. Strand

jacks can be used horizontally for pulling objects and structures and widely

used in the oil and gas industry for skidded load out, speeds of up to 40m/hr.

3.0. Document preparation

Before LO activities, the following document should be approved:

Load out Procedure

All equipment certification

Lay-out drawing

LO checklist should be prepare and presented to relevant personnel in advance

and got comment as well as addition/concern if any

Weather forecast should be provided sufficiently for LO period

3. ENGINEERING

3.1. Technical Arrangement

3.1.1. General LO procedure

Before the load out operation the barge will be moored against the load out quay.

The barge will be partly pre-ballasted in this situation. Before the load out operation

the barge will be turned into position. Once in position the barge will be ballasted

into pre-ballast condition with assistance of barge own ballast system.

The barge is to be pre-ballasted with its skid-way level between 20 mm and 0 mm

below top of quay level, continuously during the load out operations critical stage

for compensation of load transfer and tidal variation.

3.1.2. Install Strand-jacks/ Power-pack and Anchor-blocks

The strand-jacks will be installed with a small crane. This will be done under

supervision of the LO Contractor Supervisor on site. Sufficiently provide forklift /

crane assistance, LO Contractor has all other small equipment necessary for the

installation. The power-packs will be placed with a crane on the arranged platform

on the DSF. All hydraulic hoses will be installed by hand. Anchor-blocks on the

barge will be installed with a forklift /crane. This is best done when the barge is

alongside the quay

3. ENGINEERING


3.1.3. Pulling & Cutting of Strand

Strand coils will be placed in a strand cage. The position

of the cages is near the strand jacks. The strand wire will

be pulled by workmen from the Structure-location, near

the strand jacks towards the anchor block on the barge.

In this phase, the barge has to lay in LO position

perpendicular to the quay. When the total wire is pulled,

the wire will be cut by a specially prepared grinder,

which has proven to be the most effective way. The wire

will be installed at the same time in the strand jack and

in the anchor-block. (All wires must be installed in-line).

A short wave radio will be used for communication. Per

location a group of approx. Workmen are required to

pull the wire. Number of locations simultaneously

installed depending on planning.

The exact length of the strands will be determined at site

(during strand pulling) but approximate length will be

determined during the engineering phase.

3. ENGINEERING

Grinder Equipment


3.1.4. Pre-Stressing of Strands

After installation of all strands, the strands must be pre-stressed. During the pre-

stressing, the barge must be ballasted to compensate the tide allowing +/-0.1 m

in relation to the quay. The pre-stressing will be controlled by the Strand-jack

Monitoring Computer.

After pre-stressing the jacks will be given one or more “release” strokes, in

order not to have any unwanted stress on the strands until the LO start.

3.1.5. Pre-ballasting of Barge

The barge must be pre ballasted according to ballast calculation. The barge will

be ballasted into this condition with help of the barge ballast system. The pre-

ballasting will be done under supervision of LO Contractor supervisor assisted

by the barge engineer.

3. ENGINEERING


3.1.6. Breakout moment

During the breakout the load will be increased according to following

procedure:

1) Strand-jacks will be activated in steps of 20% till they are pulling X% of

vertical load (X: need to be greater than the expected friction at rest of the

structure). Between each of the steps of 20% load increase, there will be a

waiting period of 1 minute, to give the system time to act. If within this waiting

time the Structure has not moved, the next 20% will be applied.

2) In case breakout is not achieved when strand-jacks pull 8% of vertical load,

the breakout jacks will be activated for pushing. This will again be done in steps

of approximately 20% of capacity. After each step there will be a 1 minute

waiting period. If within this waiting time the Structure has not moved, the next

20% will be applied until full pushing capacity is activated.

3. ENGINEERING


3.1.6. Breakout moment

During the breakout the load will be increased according to following

procedure:

3) In case breakout still not achieved investigate what could be wrong, while

load is released to guarantee a safe way of working. It can be decided to

increase pulling load within the given strand-jack-system capacity until

breakout is achieved.

In principle, breakout will only be done once.

This set of steps in order to avoid the Structure to jump forward, due to

elasticity of strand-wires.

3. ENGINEERING

3.2. LO Sequences

3.2.1. General Engineering concerns

• The LO operation will be executed by using a skidding method. Skidding

will be performed in two phases. Phase 1 is skidding from construction

location to quayside. Phase 2 is skidding from quayside onto final position

on Barge. The pulling force required will be provided by the strand jacks

attached to the DSF. During skidding, the barge tanks shall be ballasted or

de-ballasted to their required quantities as indicated in the ballast calculation

report. The barge will be ballasted / de-ballasted until the required draft, heel

and trim have been achieved before proceeding to the next stage. The speed

of the pulling and the progress of the ballast will be coordinated within each

stage. The pulling speed will be approximately 15m/hr. When no ballasting

needs to be done, the pulling speed can be increased to maximum ± 20m/hr.

During LO the level of the barge shall be monitored visually and by

monitoring system.

parts. LO Contractor will also bring 1 complete strand-jack unit spare. If the

jack itself is damaged, the complete jack will be replaced by a spare one. It must

be said that there is not much that can be damaged to the main body of the jack.

It is a relatively simple design with not a lot of moving parts.

5.2 Strand failure

All the strands have a minimum safety factor of 2. In the case that a strand fails,

the respective strand will be removed or hung up in such a way that it does not

obstruct the other strands.

5.3 Strands slacking

If an excessive number of strands are observed to become slack during LO, the

LO Contractor site manager will assess the situation with the following options;

Continue skidding if total system remaining has sufficient capacity

Re-tension the slack strands.

5. CONTINGENCY PLANS

5.4 Hydraulic hose or fitting failure

If a hose is burst, the automatic shut off valve installed at each jack will close

immediately. The strand jack will not move and the whole system stops

immediately. The damaged hose or coupling will be replaced by a spare one,

readily available on site. A spill kit will be used to clean any oil spills.

5.5 Power pack failure

If a power pack fails, the reason of the failure will be investigated. The total

power pack can be removed and replaced or just some components. It is

common to prepare a spare power-pack directly next to the power-pack in use.

This will allow for a simple reconnection of hoses to a different power-pack in

case of any failure.

5.6 Control computer failure

The control computer is not a special computer. However, special software is

installed into the computer. This software controls the hydraulic system. If there

is a problem, the computer can be replaced by a spare one. There will always be

steering system is controlled himself by independent hydraulic system & remote

control power pack by trailer operators. Load per axle should be managed

within allowable value


3.1. Procedure

3.1.2. Preparation on Jetty

Before commencing the LO operation, shifting Structure from the fabrication

yard to jetty, the following steps will be followed 2 stages below:

Stage 1: Jacking-up Structure on Fabrication yard & cutting 04 legs of

structure:

- The Structure was arranged on temporary supports with requirement high from

Load out Frame (LO Frame) of structure to the ground.

- To make the trailer suitable to the height and better load distribution on

trailers, pre-install units of Load Spreader Beams (hereinafter called L.S.B) on

trailer platforms, insert rubber pads to increase friction.

- Bottom of the Structure will be marked for correct trailer arrangement

underneath. In addition, manoeuvring path is identified by marking lines

alongside the lengthwise of the Structure on the ground, the trailer wheels to be

driven in between these lines.

- All obstructions which interfere with the trailer’s moving path will be removed

(junction box, cable, stone, etc…)


3.1. Procedure


- Place thin rubbers at top of the Load Spreader Beam (L.S.B) to increase

friction between the Structure and trailers.

- After finishing all the preparation, LO Contractor will perform the test lift for

Structure. Before performing the trial lift. Notices will be informed to involved

Parties prior to lifting test.

- Place thin rubbers at top of the Load Spreader Beam (L.S.B) to increase

friction between the Structure and trailers. Jacking-up the trailer platforms till

top of L.S.B on trailers touching the bottom of Structure

- Lashing Structure to trailers by chain ropes. Installing tie-back beams,

stoppers to secure the stability of trailers & structure supports

- Continue to jack simultaneously the trailer platforms up 1350mm clear from

supports (Drawing No. 02). This height is fixed during the load out operation.

- Cutting/Removing all supports

- Checking all pressure of trailers to control the load condition before moving.


3.1. Procedure


Stage 2: Shifting Structure to load out Position on jetty:

- Double checking for trailers’ tires, lashing system, stability of Structure prior

to moving the Structure. This is the last stage to align trailers which are suitable

to the grillages on the barge deck. Final position will be checked & adjusted

correctly with paint marks/lines prior to commencing the LO operation.

Stability check and lashing arrangement will be performed as calculations.

- In order to shift the Structure to the load out position (ready for load out) from

the fabrication yard to the jetty. LO manager will utilize walkie-talkie during the

transport and LO operation to give command to operators.

- Finally, Power Packs of SPMT will simultaneously pull trailer fleets & the

Structure to final location for load out preparation


3.1. Procedure

- Remove any obstacle on the fabrication yard within transporting route.

- Clear all metal pieces, sharp objects on en-route which may harm the trailers’

tires. The route to the quayside should be checked and confirmed that no sort

areas exist.

- Remove electric lines/junction box on jetty which block running path of

the fleet

- Removing & clearing any obstacles on barge deck which can obstruct

the load out

Installing/welding pump frames for ballast pump.

- Clear all lubricant & grease on the maneuvering path of trailers.

- Mooring barge stern hard against the Jetty ready for load out as

3.1. Procedure

3.1.5. Link Span Installation

The link-span is the combination from separate sections. Mobilization all

dragboards, wedges, hinges etc to designated location on the jetty sufficient

days prior to load out date. Mobile crane(s) & forklift(s) are ready for link-span

installation on the Jetty. All such as link bridges to be subject to visual

inspection prior to use

Step 1:

Firstly, welding hinges to the barge deck, the thickness of welding

Step 2:

Checking & NDT for all the welding line

Step 3:

Use crane(s) to lift the wedges onto the barge deck as pre-designated location.

Step 4:

Utilize crane(s) for installation of dragboards, one by one. Adjustment of

dragboard until the pins will be put fully into hinge. Locking pins right after

successful installation.

.


3.1. Procedure

3.1.5. Link Span Installation

Step 5:

Utilize crane(s) for wedges installation on the Jetty to build the trailer path.

Step 6:

Lock small pins to connect dragboards and wedges.


3.1. Procedure

3.1.6. Methodology of Barge Mooring

Step 1:

Define the location for mooring the barge & paint marking first. Then, turn the

barge; arrange all mooring lines as designed diagram.

Mooring her stern freely (not so hard) against the jetty ready for the operation.

Tugboat, forklift etc. will be used during the mooring operation of barge.

Step 2:

When the tide rising, 03hrs prior to load out operation, utilizing winches and

chain blocks on each side for adjustment the barge coming into right position

for load out. Then, fasten, moor lines by winches, chain-blocks.


3.1. Procedure

3.1.7. Ballast Control

To ensure proper monitoring of the ballast water transferring between the tanks,

one experienced person will be assigned to supervise the ballast operation, the

sounding value, barge level at each step etc. This person will strictly monitor the

pumps that he was assigned and to control these pumps if necessary. He should

also advise the ballast engineer immediately of any mal-functioning such as

sudden loss of pressure or other concerns.

It is extremely important to confirm the working condition of ballast pumps and

ballasting operation. Walkie-talkies will be used on private channels to control

ballast pumps. The communication from the controllers is systematic. Request

or reply must be in the order of tank number to avoid confusion.

Supervising works should focus on 2 notices:


3.1. Procedure

3.1.7. Ballast Control

1) The barge will be checked all time, the barge check include: Trimming check

and heeling check, one responsible worker check the ullage of the barge both

side port and start-board each end of the barge. The result of measurement have

to be sent to ballast supervisor by walkie-talkie each 5’ for treatment, max

trimming allowable is 300cm and max heeling allowable is 100cm.

2) Pumping duration must be counted by stopwatch. Pump capacity is shown by

manufacturer & defined by pumping in tanks


3.2. LO sequences

The actual LO operation is commenced when the first axle of the trailer is on

the ramps (link-span) and finished when the whole Structure sitting correctly on

the grillages.

The Sequences is applied as follows:

Step 1: Barge is ballasted to the pre-determined condition readiness for LO with

the tide level meeting the calculated tide in the ballast calculation.

Step 2: At this time, power pack of SPMT will simultaneously pull the trailers

onto the ramps (link-span). Prior to commence this step, check carefully

mooring lines and winches.

The time duration spent for the movement of trailers that is fixed, the first axle

of trailers must stop at the first marking and ballast water will be transferred as

the ballast calculation.


3.2. LO sequences

Step 3: When ballast water volume gets satisfied level as ballast calculation for

the Structure moves on Barge, commence to move the system. Tide level is

constantly checked in a precise manner and informed to the ballast supervisor.

- During the movement, ballasting operations will be continued according to

ballast calculation.

Visual check carefully stability of structure before commencement next steps.

- Regular inspection and control the clearance between link-span and barge

deck approximately (20 – 100mm).

Step 4: Trailers got the Grillages position, stop the trailers, lower the structure

onto the grillages on the barge’s deck. During the lowering check all contact

points between the Structure and grillages


3.2. LO sequences

Step 5: Get all agreement of Company’s Representative/MWS and commence

the sea-fastening.

Step 6: After finishing the sea-fastening (approximately 30%) & MWS allows

LO contractor to take trailers out then remove all lashing slings, tieback beams

and lowering trailer platforms to pull trailers out to the jetty.

Step 7: Ballast for towing will be done after receiving the Ballast for sea-

towing Report


3.3. Post-LO activities

- Sea -fastening, welding immediately in order to secure the Structure to

the barge. Welding at main grillages before taking trailers out to the Jetty

- De-rigged trailers & gather other unnecessary equipment for demobilization.

- Disconnect ballast pumps, piles & taken out from the barge deck for

demobilization.

- Reinstallation of any barge furniture (which are removed for load out) will be

done

- Ballast for sea-towing will be done right after receiving the Ballast for sea-

towing Reports
