ALE has been contracted to transport and load-out jackets for the Wikinger OWF Project in Ferrol, Spain.

The company will perform a total of 58 land transportations - two per jacket- using SPMTs and 29 load-outs using a CC8800 crawler crane, which has a maximum capacity of 1,600t.

ALE started the project in January by performing land transportations, moving the jackets from the erection area to different storage areas within Navantia Yard. The company is also transporting the jackets from storage areas to the quay for the load-out operations.

Responsible for weighting 12 out of 29 jackets, ALE has already weighted 11 of them. It has also loaded-out 5 jackets.

The project will be completed by the end of September 2016.
