Cranes Relocation



Quay Side Container Cranes

 

Crane relocation requires careful analysis of the crane structures and the behaviour of the vessel under different sea conditions. Crane structures normally require strengthening for journeys at sea. Lashing arrangement has to be carefully designed to avoid any damage to the crane, which can arise from excessive stresses encountered during the voyage or excessive welding or heating in the lashing arrangement.

 

The fork lift method of loading and shipping has become the most popular method of transporting quay side container cranes. With proper understanding of the procedures and careful planning, this method is both fast and safe, and presents minimum disruption to the operation of the terminal.



Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes



Self Sustained Heavy Lifting Vessels

For long sea journeys, this is the preferred way. The vessel is ballastable for Ro - Ro operation or is equipped with heavy lift cranes for lifting the RTGs.



Tug and Barge

Feasible for shorter sea voyage up to about 6000 KM. Lashing arrangement has to be ridgid and robust to cope with rolling, pitching motions of the barge in the high seas. Loading and unloading is by means of roll on/roll off or by means of floating cranes. 



Floating Crane

Pick and carry method , normally applicable over a short distance within the harbour.



The entire relocation exercise involves decommissioning the RTG , pre-shipping preparation, loading, lashing, insurance survey, unloading, and re-commissioning of the equipment.
