Hi Trevor/Jon,

After today’s meeting, we have a few options to explore for getting the berm under the vessel


  *   First port of call should be to speak to the Berm manufacturer to see if there is an option of cutting windows into the Berm and resealing once the vessel is in position.
  *   Move the vessel out of the way, roll out the Berm then skate the vessel back into position.
  *   Upgrade the crane to allow the vessel to be lifted with the lid bolted on
  *   Install a backing ring behind the girth flange which is attached to the girth flange using 8 eye bolts to lift the vessel, without the top cover and using the crane as it is. Remove the backing ring after the lift has been completed.
  *   Build a fame which will be erected around the vessel. Use the frame to lift the whole vessel to slide the Berm underneath.

Any queries please give us a shout.

Wayne Griffiths
Projects Director
