7he paper describes a study to investigate the likelihood of impacts occurn.ng between a jack-up spudcan and a jacket member as the rig manoeuvres close to the jacket. The study involves assessment of likely impact locations and velocities and detailed jinite element impact analyses to investigate damage to both the jack-up and jacket. Statistical analyses to determine the probability of damage occum.ng are described upon which basis the main conclusions are drawn.
