Safe Hook On and Lift Off

This solution enables a controlled hook on and lift off by the crane of the Installation Jack-up, by utilising motion compensation to eliminate vessel motions and keep components still.

After lift-off, the heave solution featured on the hook further decreases the risk of re-impact which would occur without motion compensation.

Proven Technology

Our Feeders are based on our T700 motion compensated platform, which have a long track record in lifting, drilling, and feedering operations.

Alternative Transportation Methods - Optimised Logistics

This solution features a jack-up and 1-2 vessels with Barge Master Feeders placed on top. Whilst the jack-up and one feeder vessel stay in the field for installation, the other vessel travels to shore to transport the turbine components. This allows transportation and installation to be conducted in parallel, saving time.

Keeps Installation Jack-up in Field

This solution uses two floating barges to transport and feeder WTG components to the jack-up. This allows for the jack-up to stay in the field, preventing jack up/down times, and slow transportation of WTG components.

Increasing Jack-up Workability

This solution increases jack-up workability by keeping the jack-up in the field whilst 2 barges transport WTG components for installation. This prevents lost time for Jack up/down, and transportation.

Undo Jack-up Payload Limitations

By placing WTG components on floating barges and feedering them to the jack-up, weight is removed from the jack-up.

Undo Jack-up Crane Limitations

By using the Barge Master Feeder to keep the lifting load still, the DAF is reduced, making loads feel lighter to the crane.

Cost Reduction-Optimised Logistics

By conducting installation and transportation activities in parallel, and utilising motion compensation to increase offshore workability, project efficiency is guaranteed.
