Shepherd Offshore Comments:

“Working day and night, the team successfully supported all stakeholders on each stage of the project and fulfilled the scope of work. The Mobile crane support was particularly efficient and executed complex lifts throughout the entire project along all areas of the quay with a safe approach.

Welcoming two vessels to the Quay at different times, the team executed high organisational quality work with the project management delivering safely and timely on a complex spooled Loadout."

During the transfer of the hardware, the lifting teams (days and nights) either took their breaks when there was downtime or they split their breaks and worked through until the hardware lift was complete. Very impressed with the work ethic of the lads.
