A recyclable pile foundation is provided. The recyclable pile foundation includes several inner cylinders, several outer cylinders and several reciprocating components which are circumferentially distributed between the inner cylinders and the outer cylinders. Each reciprocating component includes several steel collars, a push-pull rod, a hold component and at least one motion component. The motion components are distributed along the push-pull rod. Each motion component includes at least one triangular connection plate, several connection rods, an inner wedge block, an outer wedge block, a motion block and a pointed rod. When the push-pull rod is pushed along its own axis to the pushed position, the pointed rod protrudes from the outer cylinders to increases the friction between the surrounding soil and the recyclable pile foundation. When the push-poll rod is pulled along its own axis to the pulled position, the pointed rods retract back into the outer cylinders.

A base structure for a piling foundation is provided. The base structure includes an upper plate and a lower plate. The lower plate is spaced a distance below the upper plate and is oriented substantially parallel to the upper plate. Both the upper plate and the lower plate include a number of plate apertures therethrough. The upper plate and the lower plate are connected to each other by webs configured to provide structural integrity to the base structure. Further, a piling foundation assembly for supporting operating equipment and a method for installing a piling foundation assembly are provided.

A ring-wing floating platform is disclosed. The ring-wing floating platform includes a floating hull, a top of the floating hull being above a sea surface and its geometry at a water plane is centrally symmetric, a ring-wing surrounding a perimeter of a bottom of the floating hull with a horizontal projection of concentric annular geometries, a positioning system located at the bottom of the floating hull, and a topsides located above the floating hull and connected to the floating hull by deck legs or installed directly on the top of the floating hull. The axes of the ring-wing and the floating hull are collinear, and their bottoms are in a same horizontal plane. The ring-wing and the floating hull are connected together as a unitary structure by multiple connecting components with an annular gap in-between.
