Ship Jumboisation

For ship jumboisation projects in drydocks skid shoes are often used for the splitting and mating of the ship sections.

 

Airbags Ship launches

Using airbags for ship launches is not a new technology, but one that is still one of the most economical ways. On the picture a 8,000t tender assist drilling rig launch using 48 airbags assisted by strand jacks to control the launch.

 

Gantry girder lift

Assembly of Goliath gantry cranes is usually done using a strand jack and tower solution. Lifts of 6,000t girders to 100m height are no longer exceptional lifts.

 

Jacking and Skidding

Lifting or moving large structures using hydraulic climbing jacks and skidding systems is often a simple and effective solution. On the photo jacking of a 2,500t accommodation module using 36 climbing jacks.
