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.

Pressed for Time
A vehicle manufacturer’s large stamping press—a massive machine used for shaping body panels—is online and operational thanks to efficient installation by Deep South. The three primary components included a 181-ton press bed (27.72’ L x 16.4’ W x 13.12’ H), 250-ton press crown (28.38’ L x 16.4’ W x 13.12’ H) and a 92-ton press slide (21’ x 10.83’ x 10.5’).

Many Lifts, One Solution: Modular Lift System Flexes Hydraulic Muscles During Process Plant Overhaul
Deep South crews were challenged to haul, lift, and set 84 modules, including three towers (one measuring 100’ long, 350,000 lbs.) as well as various pieces of process equipment, such as piping, tanks, PDC buildings, and transformers—all within a tight schedule. Many of the modules had offset centers of gravity further complicating the lift and set.

Caustic & PreFrac Tower Lift
Deep South Crane and Rigging was recently contracted by a southeast petrochemical plant as part of a major pre-turnaround project. In order to de-bottleneck ethylene production, Deep South erected a caustic tower and a prefrac tower.
