Subsea Rock Installation and Rock Placement (inbunden, eng)

Based upon the author’s wide experience in a broad range of projects, this invaluable book sets the scene and places rock installation in the context of the offshore industry today.This is an industry where health, safety and environmental considerations are factored into a project with the same level of professionalism as regulatory compliance and good design.

Full information is therefore provided about planning, preparation, execution and reporting of a rock installation project.  Key information in included on rock types, the nature of the seabed and the relationship between the quarry and the receiving vessel, which together form a system of turning a terrestrial geological formation into a rock berm offshore.

Rock installation vessels, their characteristics, equipment and capabilities are also examined.  This book is based upon personal experience offshore in a series of rock installation projects over the last 16 years. It covers the oil and gas sector, coastal engineering, power and telecom cable projects and draws on practice in the UK, Norwegian and Danish Exclusive Economic Zones where much rock installation takes place.

The range in scale is significant, from large oil field developments to more specialised projects such as the preparation of sites from which a jackup rig can safely operate.   This book is a useful enabler for project staff and new client representatives offshore to have a productive rock installation experience from the initial discussions with a contractor to the final results and verification.
