In the preparation stage, experienced professionals work closely with you to analyse your needs and develop a customized lifting solution that fits your project scope, ensuring optimal performance and results.
During the execution stage, a team of lifting experts support complete flare tip changeout operations both offshore and onshore with the innovative flare tip handling system - the TC MLS (modular lifting system).
The TC-MLS modular lifting system is constructed with lightweight and high-grade aluminium, and can handle loads up to 5MT. Operated by winches from the main deck level, the TC-MLS can be initially set up by manual handling on flare tip platforms without any vessel crane or helicopter assistance and it can reach where conventional cranes have difficulty accessing.
Prior to project execution, our teams will devise lift plans and develop a method statement, structural calculation report as well as a 3D model of the step-by-step execution. During execution the flare tip may be brought back to the main deck of the asset, or alternatively, directly lifted to a supply vessel.
TC-MLS is a modular A-Frame construction and can be used on most type of flare structures.
- It can be deployed both onshore and offshore.
- It can be deployed on platforms and FPSO.
- It is a self-lifting system and there is no need for additional cranes or helicopters.
