In October 2007, we undertook an urgent & critical Heavy Lift Project offshore on the cement plant at Langkawi Island for Lafarge Cement Plant during a major shut down repair of their jetty cement loader (weight 45mt), which is located 1km offshore.
Our 230 tonnes Manitowoc 4100W Series 2 was required to be urgently mounted securely on a barge (180ft long x 60ft breath), in order to complete the task of lifting the cement loader offshore from the Jetty installation at the height of 17m (above seawater level). After 2 weeks, the relevant repairs were completed on the cement loader which was carried out onshore at a separate sub-jetty of the cement plant, the repaired cement loader was lifted back onto its installation at the offshore jetty.
