Impressive Lifting Beam for Scaldis

Market

a.o. Wind Energy

Eager.one has designed and constructed a game-changing lifting beam for Scaldis. This state-of-the-art lifting beam enables our client to work faster and safer, making use of the full capacity and capability of the heavy lifting vessel Gulliver.

Unique features

Together with our client, we have developed a lifting beam with unique features.

Safe connection system

A safe connection system is designed to minimize the exposure during connecting and disconnecting the rigging. Rigging connection is established via the auxiliary lifting hoists, hydraulic pin-pushers and lower link plates (yellow items in the image above).

Two skiddable forks

The beam is equipped with two skiddable forks, the green and red parts of the beam. These adjustable forks can be positioned/aligned remotely, by means of a hydraulic push-pull system, situated above the lifting points. This will simplify and shorten the required rigging.

Remote control and monitoring

The complete operation of the beam can be remotely controlled and monitored by battery driven hydraulic power packs, hydraulic cylinders, cameras, and proximity switches. This will improve the safety and efficiency of the operation.

Impressive in size and capacity

With a total weight of the 250 tons high tensile steel, the beam is not only impressive in its dimensions, but also in lifting capacity. The total length measures no less than 34 meters, with a lifting capacity of SWL 3,200 tons.

Lifting beam, adjustable spreader and link plates

The image below shows the complete lifting and rigging configuration, with the lifting beam, the modified spreader and multiple link plates. These link plates have also been designed and constructed by Eager.one in a previous project for Scaldis.
