Threaded Nipples

Basic information

The Aerolift pipe lifting solutions are versatile and can be applied in various industries and settings. One such industry where these solutions prove invaluable is in the maritime sector. Specifically, our lifting solution was specially designed for handling bare and coated pipes on board the ship, The Amazon.

The Amazon is an ultra-deepwater J-Lay vessel that has undergone conversion. To facilitate efficient loading and unloading of 24-meter-long pipes, our vacuum lifting devices have been installed on all four cargo hold cranes of the ship. These devices enhance the lifting capabilities of the cranes, allowing them to work in tandem mode.

The primary function of our vacuum lifting devices is to limit the deflection of double joint pipes during the lifting process. Additionally, they are capable of handling the entire pipe using a vacuum system. This advanced technology ensures secure and efficient pipe lifting operations, promoting safety and productivity.

With our Aerolift pipe lifting solutions on board, The Amazon is equipped to handle the various challenges associated with transporting and maneuvering pipes at sea. Whether during production, storage, transhipment, or internal transport, these lifting devices offer reliable and effective solutions for the maritime industry.
