Balltec has successfully completed a contract for Allseas for the design, manufacture, testing and delivery of a 2,000 Te Abandonment and Recovery (A & R) LiftLOKTM Lifting System for the world’s largest offshore construction vessel, the Pioneering Spirit.
The scope of supply for the contract included a male Balltec LiftLOKTM lifting connector, female receptacle and A & R head.
The system, which was proof load tested to 2,460 Te, utilises Balltec’s market leading technology to provide the interface between the male and female components and has been designed for A & R work during pipelay operations.

The test rig, together with Balltec’s other testing facilities, is available for client hire.
