Mammoet has successfully introduced its Mega Jack 10000 system, a new heavy-lifting solution, for the first time. The system was deployed to facilitate the weighing, jacking, and load-out of a substantial 33,000-tonne floating production unit (FPU). This complex operation was executed under a contract with Qingdao McDermott Wuchuan (QMW).
The FPU is intended for Woodside Energy's Scarborough project, located off the coast of Western Australia. The construction of this massive unit took place at QMW's shipyard in China. The FPU consists of two primary modules, including a deck support frame, which were integrated during the process.
