English term or phrase: skirt piles
The proposed structural alternatives that TOI would investigate are listed below:
· Skirt Piles
· Lifted Jacket
· Trussed Deck

With a conventional jacket structure, the vertical load from the topsides is supported by piles which are driven through the jacket legs. The conventional jacket provides lateral bracing to the piles. In a skirt piled jacket, the vertical load from the topsides is supported by the jacket legs. This vertical load is transferred to the skirt pile sleeves which are attached to the jacket near the bottom of the jacket.
