Abstract:
The present invention refers to a floating auxiliary structure, similar to a floating rigid portal, of simple construction and low cost, designed to facilitate moving of equipment of large sizes and mass in sea operations. With the aid of the auxiliary floating structure of the present invention, equipment of large size and mass, for exporting oil production, for example, may be transported until site and lowered into sea with the use of two conventional tug boats.The invention also includes the procedure for removal of equipment from main tug boat and its descent until the sea.
