Abstract

A suction substructure (2) is for the setting of one or more conductor casing strings (14) in connection with drilling of at least one underwater well, preferably a petroleum well. Use of the suction substructure (2) renders possible the installation of conductor casing by means of known piling technique and by means of a suitable surface vessel, e.g. a suitable boat. The suction substructure (2) consists of a substructure body, which is joined in a pressure sealing manner, and which is shaped with a downwards open end part (8), which is set some way down in the seabed sediments (22). Thereupon water is pumped out of the suction substructure (2), which causes a negative pressure in the suction substructure (2), and where the suction substructure (2) thereby is pressed further down into the seabed sediments (2). The suction substructure (2) is in addition in its upper end fitted with at least one guide opening (10) and possibly an appurtenant guide funnel (12), and an appurtenant releasable and pressure sealing lid (32), and where the guide funnel (12) will be able to guide and give lateral support to a conductor casing string (14) during its subsequent installation.
