All of the above requirements can utilize one marine
asset or several marine assets to accomplish
installation, with the exception of the shore landing
services. The primary design driver for installation
services is water depth and distance from the shore
landing. These two parameters drive the size of the
steel tower and the amount of cable onboard to run
from the sea-bed up the tower and back to shore.
The primary piece of equipment for the installation
contractor is crane hoisting capability to both lower
objects to the seabed and hoist objects over 70
meters above the deck of the installation vessel.
Lifting safe working load capability of over 100mt may
be required. However, SWL of lifting machinery will
be dependant on size and weight of components to be
installed. In either case, the high load lifting capacity
