A guide funnel includes segments that have a funnel surface running at an oblique angle between a bottom end and an inner circumferential edge of the top end. The width of the funnel surface is sized so that, when the guide funnel is in an assembled state, a continuous or discontinuous funnel wall is formed between adjacent segments. The bottom end can include an arcuate-shaped ring segment that forms a portion of an outer periphery of the guide funnel. The top end can be sized so that when the guide funnel is in the assembled state a side of the top end abuts a side of an adjacent top end. An adaptor ring can be secured to the inner circumferential edge of the top end and later removed and replaced with another adaptor ring to provide a different size guide funnel. |

A floating, offshore drilling and/or production platform is equipped with a rail-mounted transport system that can be positioned at a plurality of selected positions over the well bay of the vessel. The transport system can move a drilling riser with a drilling riser tensioner system and a blowout preventer from one drilling location to another without removing them from the well bay of the vessel. Using the transport system, the drilling riser is lifted just clear of a first well head and positioned over an adjacent, second well head using guidelines. The transport system may then move the upper end of the drilling riser (together with its attached tensioner and BOP) to a second drilling location. A dummy wellhead may be provided on the seafloor in order to secure the lower end of the drilling riser without removing it from the sea while production risers are being installed. |
