We can offer full turnkey pricing on all heavy lift projects, with the scope tailored fully to meet your needs. We can complete all operations on your behalf, from hiring all equipment, as well as assessing the integrity of the equipment for handling. You may require third party review of shipping, craneage and heavy trailer operations and engineering, and we are on hand to help with this.

The Well-Safe Guardian is a highly efficient and very experienced Earl & Wright 700 series mid-water semisubmersible unit which has been optimised specifically for well decommissioning operations in the UK as part of multi-well, multi-operator well campaigns. The SDS module holds 12 divers in saturation allowing 24-hour diving operations. With this dive system and their current trendsetter trident system, it becomes the first rig (Well-Safe Guardian) in the North Sea to have the two capabilities. Saturation dive systems are typically installed on dive support vessels (DSV’s), but this was a first off in the North Sea to build a modular dive system that can be lifted (single point lift) onto a rig.
Contract type: Lump Sum
Value: 1500000
