Detailed information on our work and current crane design capacity
Current capacity for future projects.
We are continously solving several cases, but the possibilty to free 2-3 structural engineer for a new client is open. Time rate for typical project examples.
We are delivering several design manuals in the offshore oil industry simoultaneously. Some examples on the standard timeframe we use for a complete design manual (including general modeling, detail calculations and documenting):
- Casing Fingerboard - 50hrs
- DP/DC Fingerboard - 70hrs
- Gantry Crane - 400hrs
- Tubular Feeding Machine - 250hrs
- BOP Trolley - 250hrs
- Lower Guiding Arm - 120hrs
Compatibility and licenses.
We are currently working with Staad program asper client's request. Also have experience in Abaqus, Ansys, Axis FE modules. Final documentation is put together in pdf-format.

Crane Design Details
The crane is a hydraulically operated gantry type crane, which travels on rails in the fwd/aft direction. It is designed to handle tubulars from the storage area on the pipedeck to the horizontal pipehandling system which conveys tubulars onto the drillfloor. The main beam is rigidly fixed to an A-frame leg in one end. The other end is pinned to an A-leg. Each leg is resting on a crane drive assembly (carriage). The crane drive assembly includes wheels, side rollers, rack pinion drive and anti-lift arrangements. more ...
