ABSTRACT:
A method for lifting a sea platform with its substructure attached from a seabed and moving that platform to a different location. Use is made of flotation bodies which are filled with water and attached to the substructure. The flotation bodies can be emptied of some water to provide greater flotation and can be rotated around a horizontal axis to facilitate movement of the entire assembly under various sea conditions.
