ABSTRACT:
A jackup platform trailer for surface or undersea work is formed from a deck structure supported by a submersible flotation means. In a transport mode, the deck structure is linked via a gooseneck arm and swivel joint to a workboat. In an operational mode, the submersible flotation means is fully submersed to support the deck structure from the ocean floor, without need for an attached workboat.
