Jidong Oilfield (Offshore Jacket and Platform Installation) Project Progressing Smoothly

With winning the bid for Jidong Oilfield (Offshore Jacket and Platform Installation) Project, Timeast carried out the related organization and coordination work quickly, and made preparations for the construction in advance. After the completion of the offshore jacket fabrication, transportation and installation, the NP1-3P auxiliary platform upper block was successfully lifted in one time, which is the most difficult construction link of the project.

NP1-3P auxiliary platform is a 4-legged main pile jacket structure, the total weight is about 750 tons including the structure, module, crane and etc. To meet the above lifting capacity and adapt to the water depth and ensure the platform installation smoothly, after multiple comparisons, the lifting operation performed by a 1500T crane barge on the morning of the 20th. This large-scale offshore lifting operation requesting precise positioning and high accuracy combination for the upper block and jacket and multiple types of cooperation. The PMT of Timeast optimized the operation plan reasonably, seized the good weather window, and with the strong support of the company and leaders from all parties, Timeast achieved one-time successful lifting operation for the NP1-3P auxiliary platform upper block.
