DESCRIPTION

NMT on behalf of Laing Orourke, shipped 4 Wharf Modules and associated equipment from Sattahip to Thailand in February 2012. The vessel used being the MV Svenja at this time is one of the heaviest lift capacity vessels in the world of its purpose. The Project itself required a lot of consultation with all involved parties, authorities and contractors. Seeing Geraldton is a swell affected berth and the precision installation and timing required by our client, close discussions where held with the GPA, LOR, and the vessel owner in order for safe mooring during installation. The installation was estimated to be completed over 6 days and was finished in 5, safely and without event. The shipment comprised of heavy lifts up to 710mt, 54 meters long and 19.5 meters wide with installation direct to pile.
