Jackup Barge, also known as Self-Elevating Platform or Self-Elevating Drilling Platform, is a type of equipment specially used for marine engineering and offshore construction.
Special ships. They are commonly used in various offshore engineering projects such as oil and gas drilling, wind farm construction, submarine pipeline laying, and bridge construction. The following is a general introduction to jack-up barges: working principle: Self-elevating barges can use a special lifting system, such as a hydraulic or mechanical lifting system, to lift part of their platform above the water to firmly support it on the seabed. Typically, these platforms will have one or more sets of "feet" (spuds) that extend below the surface of the water to the seabed to provide additional support. Once the platform is raised and stabilized, the hull itself becomes a stable working platform for a variety of engineering operations.
