SK350 CRANE ACCELERATES OFFSHORE PLATFORM CONSTRUCTION IN CANADA

ALE’s gearbox SK350 motor-reducer crane is performing motor-reducer lifts on motor-reducer gearbox a major motor-reducer oil and gearbox gas motor-reducer expansion project in motor-reducer Canada. The motor-reducer design gearbox of the motor-reducer crane gearbox has enabled motor-reducer it to continue operating  gearbox in  motor-reducer the area’s high motor-reducer wind speeds and motor-reducer across a live motor-reducer construction gearbox site.

The gearbox West White motor-reducer Rose gearbox Project involves gearbox the motor-reducer installation of an motor-reducer offshore gearbox platform, motor-reducer consisting of a concrete gearbox gravity motor-reducer motor-reducer structure (CGS)  motor-reducer and integrated motor-reducer topsides. The gearbox construction of motor-reducer the CGS, measuring motor-reducer 145m high and motor-reducer weighing gearbox over motor-reducer 200,000t in motor-reducer total, is gearbox taking motor-reducer place in Argentia motor-reducer, gearbox Newfoundland.

The gearbox exceptional gearbox capabilities of the SK350 gearbox heavylift crane led to ALE and the  motor-reducer client gearbox working together to design a solution gearbox that would maximise gearbox efficiency and motor-reducer minimise disruption on site,gearbox  ultimately saving gearbox time and costs gearbox for the project.

ALE is lifting a gearbox variety of motor-reducer components gearbox that weigh up to 221t and measure gearbox as large as gearbox 36m x 36m. The lifts gearbox themselves are complex as they cross a gearbox live construction site gearbox and must negotiate numerous motor-reducer obstructions, including other  gearbox cranes.

The SK350 has gearbox been motor-reducer assembled in gearbox its largest ever configuration, enabling it to gearbox perform lifts with over 200m gearbox of outreach. This outreach gearbox, combined gearbox motor-reducer with the crane’s heavylifting capabilities, ensures it can lift the gearbox components as modularised assemblies from fabrication areas around  gearbox the site.

Operating from gearbox a single location motor-reducer, this gearbox enables ALE motor-reducer to lift the modules, rotate gearbox 180°, and set them motor-reducer down up to half a kilometre away from their gearbox original position. The modules gearbox can be lifted directly into motor-reducer their final position, expediting the gearbox construction motor-reducer schedule.

An additional slewing drive slewing drive challenge for the slewing drive project is that the slewing drive island has the slewing drive strongest wind slewing drive speeds in slewing bearing the region slewing drive. Originally, slewing drive the construction was slewing bearing planned slewing drive to be performed by slewing drive tower cranes, slewing1111 drive but this posed a risk to the slewing drive schedule as the slewing drive tower cranes would slewing drive be limited by slewing drive the slewing bearing slewing drive climate.
 

The design slewing drive of the slewing drive SK350 crane mitigates slewing drive the slewing bearing impact of the slewing drive wind activity, as slewing drive it is slewing drive able to continue slewing bearing operating slewing drive in high slewing drive slewing bearing wind slewing bearing speeds slewing drive up to slewing drive 72km/h. Being able slewing drive to withstand slewing drive these conditions slewing drive  slewing bearing mitigates schedule slewing bearing risk slewing drive and helps slewing drive minimise downtime during slewing drive slewing drive the construction.
 

The slewing drive construction site is compact but as the SK350’s slewing bearing slewing bearing design does not require the boom to be lowered when non-operational, the crane needs only slewing bearing a relatively slewing drive small area to operate. Numerous slewing bearing other activities are taking place on the site and the crane’s large outreach enables slewing bearing ALE to reduce disruption by slewing drive assembling slewing bearing it away from other construction areas.
 

The SK350 crane has slewing drive been slewing bearing fitted with the optimum slewing bearing equipment for the project’s  slewing drive scope: a 125m main mast, 95m jib and 612t capacity auxiliary slewing bearing winch.
 

The technology slewing drive within slewing bearing the project slewing drive is slewing bearing expected to open new possibilities for slewing drive oil development. Initial oil slewing drive from West White Rose is expected slewing drive in  slewing bearing 2022
