Milling and boring tool

A milling and boring tool with a tool shaft which comprises a center axis, at least one geometrically defined rough cutter and at least one geometrically defined finishing cutter, and the at least one rough cutter and the at least one finishing cutter respectively comprise a chip groove. The milling and boring tool is characterized in that the chip groove of the at least one finish machining cutter has an opposite twist than the chip groove of the at least one rough cutter.

Internal jacket leg cutter and method

An internal caisson/jacket leg cutter and method provides a frame having upper and lower end portions. The upper end portion has rigging that enables the frame to be lifted. Extensible arms are movably supported upon the frame. The arms extend and retract along generally radially extending lines. Extension of the arms enables them to contact the inside surface of a caisson/jacket leg and thus center and anchor the frame within the caisson/jacket leg interior. A cutting mechanism at the lower end portion of the frame includes one or more rotary cutters or milling devices that cut the caisson/jacket leg wall as these cutters traverse an arc shaped path, tracking the caisson/jacket leg wall.
