... Abstract An analysis of the overturning stability of the Maleo Platform has been conducted using the results of a comprehensive, post installation site investigation and interpretation. The jack-up is idealized as a rigid structure supported by a large "A" shape mat foundation. The mat...

... Abstract The Maleo Producer is a converted Bethlehem JU250 mat-supported jack-up unit, which was installed in July 2006, on a soft, normally consolidated clay foundation some 40 km (25 mi) south east of Madura Island and approximately 25 km (16 mi) south of Puteran Island, offshore Indonesia...
