Jacking system strength calculations for the NP392 jack-up platform.
The challenge
A jack-up platform stands on its own legs, lifting its entire hull clear of the water. The jacking system that raises and holds it carries enormous, safety-critical loads.
Our approach
We performed jacking system strength calculations, verifying the chords, pinions and guides against the holding and lifting loads class requires — in normal operation and in storm conditions.
The result
A jacking system proven to carry its loads with the margins that keep a platform standing when it matters most.
