The Barge Master Decom Barge presents a low-cost solution to decommissioning. In the use of pre-existing parts to make a whole, the Decom Barge solution ups availability, and allows for your project to have the right lifting capacity, for the right cost.

Barge Master is renowned for their innovative use of motion compensation technology within their systems, and their solutions. This technology utilizes a mix of heave, roll, and pitch compensations to account for waves and swell during offshore installations.

This solution is modular, allowing for different parts to be swapped out to meet your project’s needs.

The preferred version of the decom barge features a:

400ft barge
Barge Master motion compensated platform
Crawler crane, capable of lifting 125 tons @ a 50ft radius
Yet, other configurations are possible based on the available equipment in the market and can be explored case by case.

The Decom Barge provides a 100% workability improvement to decommissioning projects working within the US gulf. With the ability to operate within significant wave heights of up to Hs 1.75m, this solution increases the ability to work in difficult environments and minimizes downtime periods.

This solution is Jones Act Compliant as it is operated on US-owned barges. When working within the US gulf, Barge Master always operates on US-owned vessels of opportunity.

The use of motion compensation within our solution allows for the possibility of working with floating crane barges in offshore conditions. Due to this, the decom barge is not affected by jack-up limitations such as water soil conditions, payload capacity, availability etc.
