Offshore Angel 26 27 Busy year in Asia with jack This year the 2,400 ton jack-up system and strand jack system were particularly busy in Asia. Within five months, Mammoet undertook three major jack-ups with weights of up to 14,000 tons and lifts up to 23 meters. The three projects were: 1. Angel CPP Deck (8,000 tons, 23 meters, Malaysia) 2. Jurong Semi-Sub 1088 (10,000 tons, 19 meters, Singapore) 3. SuTuVang CPP Deck (14,000 tons, 10 meters, Batam) The jack-up crew was barely able take a break in between the projects. Mamoet transported the jack-up units between the yards on a barge and without disassembling them, to speed up the mobilization. This method actually saved us 20 days for mobilization/demobilization and Mammoet could carry out maintenance on the units while they were in transit. There was only a three week gap between two of the jack-up operations, and the yards were across an ocean, yet Mammoet managed to complete both on schedule. The final load out was completed in August. All three projects went extremely smoothly. The successful completion of these projects was the result of excellent cooperation between the clients, the project team, the operations/logistics team and the regional offices.

ups and mega load-outs Angel Platform assembly and jack-up The platform was constructed at 5.5 meters above ground level and about 170 meters from the quayside. Mammoet’s challenge was to bring the deck to the quayside and place it on top of a 22.5 meter high load-out frame. As the deck was not suitable for lift ing by cranes we had to skid it and jack it up. Jurong “14,000 tons” As the assembly method was only decided on at a late stage Mammoet had to move the deck in a number of operations in almost every direction: up, down, north, east and west. This was where there flexibility of our skidding and jack-up system really paid off. Mammoet also provided cranes and trailers for all other heavy lifting and transport operations for this project.

Busy year in Asia with jack<br />

This year the 2,400 ton jack-up system and<br />

strand jack system were particularly busy in<br />

Asia. Within five months, <strong>Mammoet</strong> undertook<br />

three major jack-ups with weights of up<br />

to 14,000 tons and lifts up to 23 meters.<br />

The three projects were:<br />

1. Angel CPP Deck<br />

(8,000 tons, 23 meters, Malaysia)<br />

2. Jurong Semi-Sub 1088<br />

(10,000 tons, 19 meters, Singapore)<br />

3. SuTuVang CPP Deck<br />

(14,000 tons, 10 meters, Batam)<br />

The jack-up crew was barely able take a<br />

break in between the projects. Mamoet<br />

transported the jack-up units between the<br />

yards on a barge and without disassembling<br />

them, to speed up the mobilization. This<br />

method actually saved us 20 days for mobilization/demobilization<br />

and <strong>Mammoet</strong> could<br />

carry out maintenance on the units while<br />

they were in transit. There was only a three<br />

week gap between two of the jack-up operations,<br />

and the yards were across an ocean,<br />

yet <strong>Mammoet</strong> managed to complete both on<br />

schedule. The final load out was completed<br />

in August.<br />

All three projects went extremely smoothly.<br />

The successful completion of these projects<br />

was the result of excellent cooperation<br />

between the clients, the project team, the<br />

operations/logistics team and the regional<br />

offices.
