Résumé
Jones' paper gives a brief resume of the long distance towage of offshore platforms having steel or concrete substructures. It comments on the role of the Marine Warranty Surveyor and his contribution in minimising the risks associated with long distance towage.
The paper includes reference to environmental considerations, the strength and stability of tows and the selection of towing vessels and their tow gear. Current projects worldwide are discussed, including relevant details of the Goodwyn 'A' project, Western Australia.
