Projects
Offshore Support Vessel naar Guyana
In the water in Vlissingen, a special cargo is ready. Not a steel structure or heavy machine, but a complete vessel: a 100-ton offshore wind support vessel. It is destined for Guyana, where it will be deployed in offshore operations.
ECL (Europe Caribbean Line) was tasked with transporting this support vessel safely across the Atlantic Ocean, a shipment that requires more than just lifting capacity.
Subsea Cable Reel naar Georgetown, Guyana
On the quay in IJmuiden, two pink crane booms stand ready. Suspended between them is a cable reel as tall as a three-story building: 10.2 meters in diameter and weighing 92 tons. This is no standard cargo, this is precision work at the highest level.
ECL (Europe Caribbean Line) shipped this impressive subsea cable reel to Georgetown, Guyana. The TCP pipes on board will be used to connect wells deep below the seabed, essential infrastructure for the offshore industry.
8 Thrusters naar Curaçao: wanneer tijd telt
Somewhere off the coast of Curaçao, an offshore drilling vessel lies idle, not due to bad weather or technical issues, but for scheduled maintenance. The ship is waiting. And what it needs is ready 8,000 kilometers away in the port of Rotterdam: eight brand-new thrusters, each weighing 58 tons.
This is not a shipment that can wait. This is a race against the clock.
ECL (Europe Caribbean Line) was tasked with transporting this time-critical cargo to Curaçao as quickly as possible. Eight thrusters, totaling 464 metric tons of propulsion technology, essential to getting the drilling vessel back in operation.
