Zusammenfassung:A floating arrangement is provided for overhauling hydrocarbon wells at sea by means of coiled tubing, where the floating arrangement comprises a drill floor and a work deck which is arranged in an opening in the drill floor. The floating arrangement comprises a first set of heave-compensating devices which are arranged for connection to a slip joint connected to a riser in such a manner that an approximately constant tension in the riser can be maintained when the floating arrangement moves in the water. The floating arrangement further comprises a second set of heave-compensating devices which are arranged for connection to the work deck in such a manner that the work deck is at an approximately constant distance from the seabed when the work deck can move relative to the drill floor and the floating arrangement moves in the water. The invention also comprises a method for overhauling hydrocarbon wells at sea from a floating arrangement by means of a coiled tubing frame.
