Embodiments described generally relate to methods for assembling a modular floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel. A cargo module section, a forward module, and a rear module can be positioned and aligned with each other such that the cargo module section can be disposed between the forward module and the rear module. A plurality of connectors can be coupled together to secure the forward module and the cargo module section together and another plurality of connectors can be coupled together to secure the rear module and the cargo module section together. A first topside module can be installed onto or over an upper surface of the forward module and can include a flare tower, a turret, hydrocarbon production equipment, or any combination thereof.

The present invention relates to a semi-submersible platform (1) for maritime applications such as wind power, electrical substations or hydrogen generation plants, wherein the semi-submersible platform (1) comprises a base body (2) made of concrete equipped with internal compartments (3) adapted to house ballast water, and three or more buoyancy columns (4) substantially made of concrete, wherein said columns (4) protrude from an upper face of the base body (2) and are arranged at the vertexes of the base body (2), wherein at least one column (4) is internally equipped with respective concentric rings (5, 6), an inner ring (5) and an outer ring (6), joined together by a plurality of radial walls (7) that define anti-flood compartments (8).

A support structure for manufacturing a pressure vessel, the support structure configured to be carried on a supporting substrate, the support structure comprising a first segment support structure nestable within, and moveable relative to, a second segment support structure, wherein the first segment support structure is configured to be raised and lowered relative to the second segment support structure to thereby raise and lower the first segment relative to the substrate, and the first segment support structure is configured to move between a nested position within the second segment support structure to a position spaced apart from the second segment support structure across a surface of the substrate.

A watercraft having a frame which incorporates rails and a plurality of sleeve members. The rails may be used to increase modularity of the watercraft and increase the surface area for attachment of accessories and may be comprised of modular aluminum extrusion. The sleeve members may be used to attach a variety of accessories for recreational watercrafting or for fastening the watercraft to a trailer.
