OTR Trailers and Tight Quarter Cranes Key to Successful Project
The upper and lower sections of this vessel, weighing 85T and 102T, respectively, were transported from the port to the refinery using over-the-road Dual Lane Goldhofers. They were then lifted and set, in combination with their supporting structures, using the 660-ton Demag CC2800-1 and the 500-ton Liebherr LTM1400 7.1.

Routine maintenance plant turnarounds are typically anything but straightforward—as a turnaround in the Southeast quickly demonstrated. The effort called for the removal and replacement of three exchangers, as well as a flare modular replacement. The size and location of the exchangers, the tight window for replacement of the flare, and localized high working-wind speeds were a few of the top challenges that the Deep South team were tasked to overcome.
