Firstly, ABL provided marine assurance<\/a> and marine warranty survey<\/a> (MWS) services for the wet tow preparation, disconnection and lay-down of risers and moorings, unmanned wet tow from Australia to Singapore, drydocking and modification for dry transport and wet tow to the float-on location outside Singapore.

ABL then provided marine assurance and MWS services for the FPSO float-on to the semi-submersible heavy transport vessel Hua Rui Long, the dry transport from Singapore to Denmark, float-off, wet-tow and alongside mooring at Modern American Recycling Services\u2019 (MARS) recycling facility in Denmark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABL\u2019s client for this final phase was the Australian Department of Industry, Science & Resources (DISR).<\/a> ABL\u2019s offices in Australia,<\/a> Singapore,<\/a> China,<\/a> UK<\/a> and Germany<\/a> were all involved with planning, Review, survey operations oversight services associated with the warranty approval for the transportation of the 274-metre and 52,000 tonnes displacement heavy FPSO from Australia, via Singapore and to Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cThis has been long journey for the FPSO, including multiple complex inshore, nearshore and offshore operations. I am proud to say that every step has been executed safely and in line with pre-approved plans. It has been a highly impressive cooperation by all parties involved with the project to achieve this successful outcome,\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
