Definitions
- the present invention relates to an offshore foundation structure and, in particular, to a wind turbine offshore foundation structure.
- the invention relates to an offshore foundation, in particular to a wind turbine offshore foundation, and to a method of establishing such an offshore foundation.
- a jacket construction is, for example, shown in US 5,988,949 or in EP 2 067 914 A2 , a tripod construction, for example, in DE 10 2004 042 066 A1 .
- a typical method for establishing a foundation based on a jacked construction or a tripod construction is to prepare the seabed prior to establishing the foundation which includes levelling out variations of the height of the seabed in order to achieve a construction in level. Furthermore, the method comprises establishing piles very accurately positioned in the seabed such as by means of a pre-fabricated and pre-positioned pile positioning template structure on the seabed.
- GB 2460172 A discloses a method of installing a pile in the seabed in which method a guide structure for the pile is used.
- the guide structure comprises a tubular column/support that is carried on four footings.
- a tubular pile which is to be installed into a socket in the seabed is supplied within a vertical column/support, as it is shown in the figure as a hidden component.
- Each footing stands on an adjustable foot which is capable of being moved through some small distance vertically as well as being attached in the pivotable manner.
- the guide structure will be totally or partly removed after installing the pile.
- WO 2009/155639 A1 describes a drilling platform for geological sample drilling.
- a plurality of legs extend from the platform to the ground and are of variable lengths, which allows the platform to be set horizontally even on uneven ground.
- WO 2005/040605 A1 describes an offshore foundation for a wind energy plant.
- the offshore foundation comprises a number of legs with piles located inside the legs. The piles can be rammed into the seabed. From this document the features of the preamble of claim 1 are known.
- EP 1 707 808 A2 describes feet for an offshore wind energy plant which may be anchored in the seabed by use of piles driven through the feet.
- the piles are established by using e.g. hydraulic driven means which literally hammer the pile down into the seabed.
- a jacket or a tripod construction is set over a part of the pile (or piles in case of a tripod construction) and the space between the leg and the pile is grouted to establish a secure connection.
- the first objective is solved by an offshore foundation structure as claimed in claim 1 and by an offshore foundation as claimed in claim 5.
- the second objective is solved by a method of establishing an offshore foundation as claimed in claim 9.
- the depending claims contain further developments of the present invention.
- An inventive offshore foundation structure which may, in particular, be a wind turbine foundation structure, i.e. a foundation structure for carrying a wind turbine tower comprises at least one leg to be positioned on the seabed.
- a foundation structure is formed as jacket structure or a tripod structure with three legs resting on the seabed.
- the at least one leg of the inventive offshore foundation structure comprises an adjusting means which is able to, and prepared for, adjusting the axial length of the leg.
- the at least one leg comprises: a main tube extending along an axial direction and a seabed plate which is located at the seabed side end of the main tube and prepared to hold the structure at least temporarily on the seabed.
- a seabed plate tube extends from said seabed plate into said main tube and is prepared to be moved in relation to said main tube in axial direction of said main tube.
- An adjusting means is present which is able to, and prepared for, adjusting the relative axial position of the main tube and the seabed plate tube to each other.
- the at least one leg comprises a pile which is adapted to be driven into the seabed.
- the pile extends at least partly through the seabed plate tube and the main tube. This allows the pile to be located inside the leg or the legs of the offshore foundation structure when the foundation structure is positioned on the seabed and to drive the piles into the seabed after positioning the foundation structure whereby the piles and the driving means for driving the piles can be guided by the main tube and the seabed plate tube.
- the piles can be established in the seabed after the foundation structure is placed on the seabed through the main tube and the seabed plate tube.
- the adjusting means can be a jack means which acts between the seabed plate tube and the main tube.
- the seabed plate tube and/or the main tube can comprise a jack base means which is prepared for holding the jack means and/or for providing support for the jack means.
- Other adjusting means like, for example, gear wheels acting between the seabed plate tube and the main tube, are in general conceivable.
- the adjusting means for adjusting the relative axial position of the main tube and the seabed plate tube to each other can be designed such as to be removable from the leg so that it can be reused in another leg.
- the adjusting means can also be an integral part of the leg so that it remains in the leg after the foundation has been established.
- jacket structures and tripod structures have been mentioned as typical offshore foundation structures other structures having two, four, or more legs are also conceivable.
- an offshore foundation established on a seabed is provided.
- the offshore foundation may, in particular, be a wind turbine offshore foundation.
- the offshore foundation comprises an inventive offshore foundation structure resting on the seabed.
- the axial length of the at least one leg is so adjusted as to level out variations of the seabed on which the foundation structure rests.
- the length of the leg is adjusted by adjusting a relative axial position of a main tube and a seabed plate tube to each other so as to a level out variations of the height of the seabed.
- the inventive offshore foundation reduces, or even eliminates, the need for levelling out the seabed area on which the foundation is to be established.
- a space between the main tube and the seabed plate tube of the offshore foundation structure leg may be grouted in order to increase stability of the foundation.
- the at least one leg of the offshore foundation comprises a pile which is driven into the seabed so as to function as an anchor for the foundation.
- a pile partly extends through the seabed plate tube and the main tube.
- a method of establishing an offshore foundation on the seabed, in particular, a wind turbine offshore foundation as described above comprises the steps of positioning an inventive offshore foundation structure and adjusting the offshore foundation structure by use of the adjusting means.
- the inventive method further comprise the step of anchoring the offshore foundation structure by driving piles into the seabed.
- the inventive method reduces the need for precisely levelling the seabed since the adjusting means can be designed such as to be able to level out even large variations of height of the seabed in order to achieve a construction in level. Levelling out the seabed before establishing the foundation can therefore be reduced, or even omitted if the seabed variations of the site in which the foundation is to be established are not too large.
- the foundation structure is first placed on the seabed and then the piles are driven into the seabed through the seabed blade tube and the main tube.
- the offshore foundation structure for example a space between the pile and the seabed blade tube and/or the main tube may be grouted in order to increase stability of the structure after the pile has been driven into the seabed or the foundation structure has been placed on the pile.
- a possible offshore foundation structure by which the invention can be realised is a jacket structure as it is shown in Figure 1 in highly schematic view.
- the jacket structure shown in this figure comprises three legs 11 each forming a tubular hollow foundation member.
- Another possible offshore foundation structure by which the invention can be realised is the so called tripod structure that is schematically shown in Figure 2 .
- three legs 11 forming tubular hollow foundation members support a tube 9 carrying an installation like a wind turbine.
- FIG 3 shows a leg 11 of an inventive foundation structure, which could be either a tripod - or jacket type structure.
- the leg 11 is equipped with an open longitudinal end 12 which is placed on the seabed 6 such that the open longitudinal end 12 shows towards the seabed 6.
- the legs 11 are slightly tilted with respect to the vertical direction.
- Piles 7 may project through the open longitudinal ends 12 of the legs 11 into the seabed 6 to form anchors for the foundation structure.
- the interior of the longitudinal hollow foundation members 11 may be grouted, in particular the space between the piles 7 and the inside wall of the legs 11, in order to increase stability of the structure.
- piles as anchors securing the foundation structure in place can also be achieved by anchoring means other than piles or by means of gravitation foundations.
- Figure 3 shows the seabed end of a leg 11 of a wind turbine foundation structure (e.g. tripod or jacket).
- a wind turbine foundation structure e.g. tripod or jacket
- the legs 11 of the wind turbine foundation structure according to the first embodiment comprise(s) for a minimum configuration:
- the seabed plate tube 2 of the present embodiment is located inside the main tube 3.
- the main tube 3 and/or the seabed plate tube 2 further comprise(s) jack base means 4 which is prepared for holding the jack means 5 and/or providing support for the jack means 5 and which can withstand the loads applied to the base means 4 by e.g. the weight of the foundation structure through the jack means 5.
- Figure 4 shows the seabed end of a leg 11 of a wind turbine offshore foundation structure (e.g. tripod or jacket).
- the foundation structure is further supported in its position by one or more piles 7 penetrating the seabed 6.
- the piles 7 can be made of e.g. steel, concrete or reinforced concrete or a combination hereof.
- the piles 7 are established in the seabed 6 after the foundation structure is placed on the seabed such as through the main tube 3 and the seabed plate tube 2 as indicated by the arrow in the figure.
- the main tube 3 and/or the seabed plate tube 2 may be secured to the pile 7 by grouting the space 10b between the pile 7 and the seabed plate tube 2 and/or the space 10a between the pile 7 and the main tube 3.
- FIG. 5 An offshore foundation which is not part of the invention as claimed in the appended claims is schematically illustrated in Figure 5 .
- Figure 5 shows the seabed end of a leg 11 of a wind turbine foundation structure (e.g. tripod or jacket).
- the seabed plate 1 further comprises a separate pile tube 8 which extends vertically or near vertically from the seabed plate 1 and which is prepared for receiving a pile 7.
- the piles 7 can be made of e.g. steel, concrete or reinforced concrete or a combination hereof.
- the piles 7 may be established in the seabed 6 before the foundation structure and the pile tubes 8 of the seabed plate 1 are placed over the piles.
- the piles 7 may be established in the seabed 6 after the foundation structure is placed on the seabed such as through the pile tube 8.
- the pile tube 8 may be secured to the pile 7 by grouting the space 10c between the pile 7 and the pile tube 8.
- the jack means 5 may be e.g. hydraulic operated, pneumatic operated or manually operated.
- the jack means 5 may be removable so that it can be removed after positioning and possible grouting, or the jack means 5 may be non-removable so that it stays installed after positioning and possible grouting.
- the invention can furthermore be advantageous in that the piles are established after the foundation structure has been positioned on the seabed. Thereby the piles do not need to be very accurately positioned on/in the seabed prior to positioning the foundation structure such as by a pre-fabricated and prepositioned pile-positioning template structure.
