ABSTRACT:
An independent modular structure for providing lateral support for the well conductors of an offshore well platform and a method for designing and using such structure are disclosed. The modular structure can be inserted into a void in the jacket of the well platform. The vertical spacing between adjacent support points on the modular structure is determined by the lateral support requirements of the well conductors. Accordingly, the design of the platform jacket may be optimized without consideration of the lateral support requirements of the well conductors.
