ANALISA STABILITAS WORK BARGE ELANG BIRU 505 AKIBAT PENGARUH OPERASIONAL CRAWLER CRANE DI ATASNYA DI LEPAS PANTAI KALIMANTAN TIMUR

Abstract

Work Barge is an important infrastructure to support Petroleum and Natural Gas (MIGAS) drilling activity in swamp, river, shore and offshore. In the work barge, all of the activities move accordance with the plan. The well be in production after the work barge finished do the drilling activity. The other function of the work barge is to maintain the well production. It begins from the well maintenance to the offshore maintenance. We need an equipment that is called crane to support all of the work barge activities. Based of the data that we find out from Total E & P Indonesie field, East Kalimantan, from 10 (ten) work barges that is used to do all of the activities, only 8 (eight) of them used work barge with crane. We know that crane has some characteristics. We have to pay attention to some procedures when the crane go up (lift), go down and put the load. They are the heavy load, the position of the load when the crane lift it, and the right place to put the load. How to operate the crane on the top of the work barge? We have to pay more attention when operate crane on the top of the work barge because the position of the work barge is in the difference media. The work barge take place in the fluid media and the crane is in the land. Key Word : Work Barge, Crawler Crane, Drilling, Load Chart, Stability
