DLT have supplied jacking systems for numerous oil & gas projects, mainly for the heavy lifting or skidding of large structures such as rig jackets, topsides and heavy vessels in refineries. We are able to design and supply heavy lifting systems to carry out these operations
together with site supervision, training of client's staff and full design of all temporary & strengthening works required.
Recent examples of our work include……….
<< MYQ5000 jacking tower system for refinery construction >>
China National Petroleum (CNPCC) have placed a contract with DLT for the supply of a 5,000 tonne lifting capacity jacking tower system, for use in the erection of heavy petrochemical vessels. The MYQ5000 jacking tower system will be able to self-erect and self-dismantle, and will also be able to move with the vessel after lifting. The tower system will be delivered in early 2014. More>

<< Recovery of mooring yoke to release FSO from buoy, Mediterranean Sea
DLT were sub-contracted to provide a strand jacking system to raise a mooring yoke to release an FSO vessel from its mooring buoy where it had be located for 20 years. The original 1000te capacity long stroke ram used to install the yoke was unserviceable. DLT engineered a system using 2No DL-S418 strand jacks mounted on a T-frame attached to the FSO using the existing long stroke ram mounting point. The jacks were powered by a DL-L114/4/D diesel engine operated hydraulic power pack.

Sea Drill
pontoon launch, Singapore >>
DLT were sub-contracted to side shift and launch 2 No 3600 tonne pontoon units at the Jurong Shipyard, Singapore, in May and June 2007 for the Sea Drill floating platform No 8. The first pontoon was launched 125m down a 6 degree slope into the water in May. The second pontoon was side shifted 100m into position for launching and then launched down the same slope as the fist pontoon. The pontoons were supported on inflated air bags for all these operations and moved using 2 no DL-S185 strand jacks and 2 No DL-L30F/1/350/120/E power packs for a launching speed of 17 m/hour, controlled using the DL-P40 computer control system.

<< Dismantling
of the Brent Spar oil storage platform
DLT were responsible for the design of a 2300 tonne lifting capacity lifting gantry for handling cut sections of the Brent Spar as it was decommissioned in a Norwegian fjord in 1999. The gantry used 4 No 580 tonne capacity strand jacks for lifting and a gripper jack system for longitudinal movement over the decommissioning barge. The legs and cross beams of the gantry structure were made from a proprietary tower system which were connected and braced using purpose designed steelwork.
