Vatana Phaisal Selects Sarens for Heavy Lifting Operations in Sattahip, Chonburi
Sarens will contribute with the lifting of vessels and heat exchangers used in the manufacture of modules for large-scale construction and industrial projects, such as custom steel structures and pre-fabricated components used in heavy lifting and transportation.
For this work, Sarens has brought a GMK 5220-220T mobile crane unit to VPE’s Sattahip facility, which will lift vessels of approximately 23.4 tons and 18 metres in height, as well as heat exchangers of 22 tons and 9.2 metres in height, among other things.
Vatana Phaisal Engineering (VPE), a company with more than 60 years in steel fabrication, mechanical and piping installation, and modularization services for industrial projects, has chosen Sarens to carry out various heavy lifting tasks at its plant in Sattahip, Chonburi (Thailand) over a period of approximately two months.
Sarens, world leader in heavy lifting, engineered transport and crane rental services, will collaborate with VPE with various heavy lifting tasks that will facilitate the production of custom steel structures and pre-fabricated components used in heavy lifting and transportation at the Sattahip plant, one of VP’s three factories in Thailand, employing more than 4,500 people in total.
For this work, Sarens has brought to Chonburi a GMK 5220 crane unit with a lifting capacity of 220 tons due to its high adaptability. Thanks to the flexible and advanced hydraulic system, the Sarens technical team will be able to lift vessels of approximately 23.4 tons and 18 meters in height, as well as heat exchangers of 22 tons and 9.2 meters in height, which will be used to manufacture modules for large-scale construction projects.
Prior to the start of the heavy lifting work at the VPE facility, a thorough engineering study had to be carried out, as the work area has limited space available to carry out the necessary maneuvers. Once the necessary protocols had been evaluated in order to operate safely and in total coordination with VPE so as not to interrupt the rest of the activities being carried out at the location, the Sarens team proceeded to lift the load within a 14-meter radius and then place it on a low-bed trailer. Before final placement it is necessary to slew the load 120 degrees and install it onto the foundation.
According to Ukrit Phorjai, Sarens Sales Manager, ‘we thank Vatana Phaisal Engineering for the trust placed in our work and all the facilities we are finding for the development of our tasks in Sattahip. Their commitment to excellence and safety is fully in line with our company’s philosophy and we look forward to developing new projects with their collaboration in the coming months’.
Sarens has more than 60 years of international experience in the development and installation of strategically important projects. In the energy sector, Sarens has been recently involved in the Clean Fuel Project works in Thailand, in the expansion of the S-Oil plant in Ulsan, South Korea, in the construction of the Petroperu refinery in Talara (Peru), and in the Skikda refinery in Algeria among others. Sarens was recently commissioned by PTSC M&C for the load out of an LQUP jacket weighing more than 4,500 tons in Vietnam that will be dedicated to the extraction of Oil&Gas in the Bay of Bengal.
