Dutch heavy lift and transportation company Mammoet has said it has won its largest-ever contract at the Arctic LNG 2 project in Russia.
Mammoet said Monday the contract was awarded by Technip-led joint venture NovArctic in cooperation with Saipem and NIPIgas. Under the contract, Mammoet will be responsible for unloading, transportation, and installation for the Novatek-operated Arctic LNG 2 project.
The $21.3 billion Arctic LNG 2 project, sanctioned in 2019, will develop the Utrenneye field on the Gydan Peninsula. The project includes the construction of three LNG trains, with a capacity of 6.6 mtpa of LNG each, and at least 1.6 mtpa of stable gas condensate. The total LNG capacity of the three trains will be 19.8 mtpa. The project employs a construction concept using offshore gravity-based structures (GBS).

The wind turbines are getting bigger, leading to the deployment of higher capacity cranes for their installation. Are we reaching the limit as to the way the crane industry can serve this market? Sotiris Kanaris reports
“With targets set for the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions on a global scale, and the awareness of the limited availability of conventional sources, the demand for heavy lifting solutions related to onshore wind energy has increased,” says Arjen Vergunst, general manager wind operations at Sarens.
Sarens has been involved in wind energy projects around the world, supplying cranes for new installations as well as maintenance. “The majority of the jobs are new installations either on new wind farms or replacing older generations. With the improved technologies and the guarantees provided, the demand for maintenance has increased,” he adds.
