Hansa transports reels, subsea equipment for Jangkrik project

By Romel S. Gurky

Germany-based Hansa Heavy Lift GmbH announced it has successfully transported two dozen reels as well as a range of subsea equipment for the Jangkrik gas field project, in Muara Bakau PSC, Indonesia.

Hansa said in a statement on Tuesday that HHL Richards Bay picked up the cargo at three different ports: Rosyth, UK; Le Trait, France and Tanjung Langsat, Malaysia.

Hansa discharged the reels and subsea equipment in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan Province, onto the offshore vessel Viking Neptun, in five mobilizations. Two more offshore vessels, the Seismic Supporter and the Deep Orient, were used to load and offload some of the equipment from HHL Richards Bay, which required additional planning.

?This was a complex project which required a very careful planning process as well as continuous communication with all parties involved from the start,? said Henry Woo, Head of Asia Pacific, at Hansa Heavy Lift.

?Our P2-1400 vessel type was the ideal ship for this project, as she provided enough space to stow and handle the cargo and enough crane capacity for discharging.

?The successful completion of this project demonstrates our ability to handle sensitive cargo during all stages of transport, whilst providing a safe work environment and complying fully with very high offshore standards and requirements.?

Hansa Heavy Lift specializes in super heavy lift, heavy lift and project cargo, with an increasing focus on transport and installation (T&I) in the subsea oil and gas markets, as well as the fffshore windfarm sector.
