The third was lifted using the on-board cranes and placed onto two tween deck pontoons, which then acted as driveway access to the flying deck pontoons.<\/p>\n<p>Once the driveway tween decks had been removed, the fourth and final crane was lifted and placed on the hatch covers between the cranes of the HHL Kobe.<\/p>\n<p>Only a small gap of 9cm was left in-between two of the RTGs so that one of the vessel\u2019s own cranes could be brought down to a resting position, in order to avoid violating air draft restrictions in the Bosporus Strait.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKeeping in close contact with the customer right from the early stages of the project, as well as successful cooperation on site, helped us to eliminate all of the possible risks involved and allowed us to execute the project smoothly,\u201d said Joerg Roehl, Chief Commercial Officer, HANSA HEAVY LIFT.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe key to our success was the outstanding cooperation between the transport engineers from deugro and HANSA HEAVY LIFT. We focused on the solutions, instead of the problems, to solve any issues that arose,\u201d said Pasi Mantila, Operations Manager at deugro (Finland) Oy.<\/p>\n<p>HANSA HEAVY LIFT specialises in the transportation of super heavy lift, heavy lift and project cargoes, with a particular focus on transportation and installation (T&amp;I) in the subsea oil and gas market as well as the offshore windfarm sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HANSA HEAVY LIFT\u00a0has transported four RTG cranes on behalf of deugro (Finland) Oy, each measuring 29.0m x 12.0m x 24.0m and weighing 132 metric tonnes, from Ukraine to Egypt.
