Blue Water Wins New Heavy-Lift Transportation Contract

Blue Water signed a contract in 2013 with a global leader in the design, construction and repair of mobile offshore rigs. The contract included heavy-lift transportation of a number of drilling rigs and handling more than 600.000 freight tons by dry and wet towage.

“For this project we have chartered the biggest semi-submersible vessel in the world, the “Dockwise Vanguard”. We completed a float on operation of the first lower hull in mid-December and the vessel is now on its way to Brazil. We expect to handle the next heavy lift in the second half of 2014″, says Lars Skov Christensen, Project Manager from Blue Water Singapore.

The expertise within handling challenging project cargo is a result of many years’ of experience and a large network of specialists.

“Blue Water has more than 60 offices worldwide and has handled industrial and project cargo for decades. This gives us invaluable on-site experience from projects all over the world and we can access a great knowledge-sharing database through our network of dedicated experts around the globe”, says Lars Skov Christensen.
