Crane rental company Ainscough Group deployed a 400t Liebherr LTM 1400 and a 250t Demag AC 755 (now AC 250) to exchange a flare tip from the top of a 107m-high flare stack at ICI’s North Tees Refinery in the UK.

The 1.5t tip was dual lifted at a radius of 38m, placed onto the ground and replaced with a new tip.

Working for contractor Brown & Root/AOC, Ainscough raised steeplejacks from Harrison Brothers Ltd in man-baskets to carry out the swap.
