HIAB-FOCO Delivers Two Service Cranes To North Sea Oil Project Two hydraulic service cranes have been supplied by HIAB-FOCO of Sweden to Norway's Gullfaks oil- field project in the North Sea. The cranes, both HIAB 180 Sea Crane units, were specially designed for use on tanker loading facilities in February 1, 1986 9 the North Sea. Both will work on the field's two single-point mooring (SPM) system. The units offer the unusual com- bination of a two-ton crane winch for general lifting purposes and a 500-kg high-speed winch for load lifts from water level up to the rotat- ing deck. The Gullfaks SPM systems arear- ticulated column structures that comprise a steel tower fixed to the seabed by a universal joint and topped by a circular deck for crude oil transfer to tankers. On this type of installation, the HIAB-FOCO Sea Crane knuckle-boom principle pro- vides the advantages of light weight and a compact foldaway configura- tion. Other benefits of the models include direct hook lift, load con- trol, all-around slewing and a large working area. The Sea Crane series is designed for offshore use in the rough North Sea, and reportedly is the only knuckle boom crane for marine use with Lloyd's Register approval. In addition, the cranes delivered to Gullfaks are manufactured to Det norske Veritas standards and meet the requirements of the Norwegian Maritime and Petroleum Directo- rates.
