An Asset or a Hazardous liability?
When an offshore installation is no longer in operation, with its ability to generate cash-flow, it also poses an environment risk due to its presence in the midst of the ocean. A safe option available for owners in such a case is to remove the vessel from the marine environment and get it responsibly recycled so that up to 98% of the resources used for the construction can be utilized again.
As the asset reaches this stage in its lifecycle, we enter the picture.
Our mission is to enable a sustainable, green transition in the offshore sector through environmentally friendly recycling of offshore assets.
Our expertise in decommissioning and recycling of complicated offshore projects sets us apart, and our proven track record speaks for itself.
Semisubmersible units laid up with overburden require careful planning for re-floating and preparing for the tow. Preparation work leading to floating follows the below sequence:
Reactivation of the power systems.
Reactivation of the Ballast systems.
Preparation of de-ballasting sequence
De-ballasting whilst connected to the towing and positioning tugs
Reactivation of the safety systems.
Calculation of Overburden based on the loading condition
Preparation of towing arrangement using divers and/or after floating whilst held by tugs
Re-floating and securing for the voyage

Majority of the newer mid water segment Semisubmersibles and drill Ships are equipped with either Dynamic Positioning (DP) System or Thruster Assist Mooring Systems (TAMS). In order to prepare the units for the final voyage, thrusters are required to be removed.
Our highly experienced Operations team, along with the support from the experts, is thoroughly competent in execution of such projects
Preparation of inner hull for thruster removal
Reactivation of cranes to pick up the thrusters
Final removal of the thrusters
Ensure water tightness at all times
Prepare Strand Jack arrangement and hook up using the divers
Check Hull integrity and repair if required

Across ocean voyages are often planned using the semisubmersible heavy lift vessels. Our team plans and executes the project starting from the reactivation of the unit to final loading and subsequent discharging at the destination. It is a critical operation involving careful engineering and accurate manoeuvres.
Reactivation of the power systems.
Reactivation of the Ballast systems.
Preparation of de-ballasting sequence
De-ballasting whilst connected to the towing and positioning tugs
Loading on the HLV
Discharging off the HLV decks
Reactivation of the safety systems.
Calculation of Overburden based on the loading condition
Preparation of towing arrangement using divers and/or after floating whilst held by tugs
Re-floating and securing for the voyage
Pre discharging checks

Jack up rigs are often laid up offshore or near shore in shallow waters. Majority of these units are laid up for several years in a Jacked up state. Our team pre-plans the project to reduce the timeline and to anticipate the possible challenges during the course of reactivation and preparing for the tow :
Reactivation of the power systems
Reactivation of the Jacking System
Calculation of Stability in afloat condition
Checking hull integrity and repairs
Final Towing
Reactivation of the safety systems
Prepare the jetting system for the leg stuck condition
Calculation of the jacking loads
