EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE IN INSTALLATIONS
After each asset has travelled its ‘final mile’, clients can also depend on Osprey to carry out fully engineered and precise installation.
By offering a true, end-to-end, integrated solution, we remove the need for additional stakeholders and extra interfaces that create unnecessary complexity. We do this by having the equipment and expertise on hand for all clients:
- Engineering team that uses 2, 3 and 4D CAD to deliver detailed project installation plans
- Jacking systems, proven to be more effective in unusual or tight situations
- Skate systems to enable millimetre precise movements in constrained areas
- SPMTs on hand to provide heavy lifting capabilities as an alternative to lifting
Osprey carries out every installation to millimetre precision. Our lifting service is full-contract, full service. We supply everything from the initial technical discussions through to full lift and installation designs – bringing together a multi-disciplined team of engineers to find the best solution – to the physical rigging, and all on-site support.
3000 TE CAPACITY HYDRAULIC JACK-UP SYSTEM
Our hydraulic jacking system has a cassette configuration with multiple tower units and up to 3,000 tonnes of lifting capacity.
We combine our heavy lift equipment with our jacking systems to provide integrated and flexible solutions, for client specific applications – as shown here, combined with our SPMTs.
Hydraulic Gantries
Hydraulic gantries are a safe, efficient way to lift and position heavy loads, particularly useful when working in locations where traditional cranes can’t easily gain access.
When combined with rail systems, hydraulic gantries are also an excellent means for moving and placing heavy loads precisely: they’re a cost-effective solution for many lifting and rigging applications. We offer solutions to lift/move up to 3,000te.
Jack-Up Systems
Jack-Up Systems are a multipoint lifting system. A typical system setup includes four jack-up units positioned under each corner of a load.
A four unit setup has a lifting capacity of 2,000 metric tons. The lifting frame of a jack-up contains four hydraulic cylinders in each corner which lift and stack steel boxes.
A load is lifted in increments as boxes are slid into the system, lifted, and stacked; forming ‘lifting towers’. A Jack-Up System is operated and controlled by a computer control unit. Each unit’s lifting and lowering operations occur simultaneously; the computer control unit’s synchronous technology maintains the balance of the load.
The hydraulics power units are embedded within each unit’s lifting frame. Safe lifting heights are dependent on the expected side load. The capacity can be increased for specific applications, through the introduction of additional lifting towers, within this modularised system.
Hydraulic Skids
A skidding system comprises a series of skid beams moved by hydraulic push-pull cylinders, traveling over a pre-constructed track.
A series of special PTFE-coated pads are put on the skid tracks to reduce friction. The skid beams are then connected by hoses to a hydraulic pump. We can engineer multi directional schemes to install heavy and large equipment into confined spaces in an engineered and controlled methods.
