ABSTRACT:
Method for founding and stabilizing an off-shore platform which at its lower end is provided with skirts. The skirt or skirts are forced so deep down in the ground that a significant portion of the foundation area is transferred down to a depth where the load carrying strength of the ground is sufficient in regards to geotechnical stability and that it prevents an acceptable settlement.
The platform (1) which is intended to be installed at very great depths, includes a foundation structure to be forced down in the sea bed, a cell portion that in its operational position is completely submerged, and an upper portion extending from the cell portion and up above the sea surface, where the submerged cell portion includes a centrally located cell surrounded by at least one cell portion.
