Abstract :
Jack-up platforms are a type of mobile
offshore drilling unit designed to provide stable support
for various types of operations in the petroleum industry
for the exploration and extraction of hydrocarbons from
the seabed. This type of design of jack-up platforms is
based on several factors, including water depth, soil
conditions, environmental loads, and platform
performance requirements. The platform must be
designed to withstand the forces of wind, waves, and
currents, as well as the weight of the drilling or
production equipment. This article provides a summary
of the conception, building, installation, operation, and
analysis of jack-up structures. It highlights the different
types of jack-up platforms, their components, and the
various factors that are considered during their design,
construction, and installation.
