Installation and Rigging Details
Modular construction allows for quayside-to-vessel transfer with standard cranes. Total empty system weight: ~300 tonnes per carousel (~600 tonnes for the pair). Minimum quayside storage: 600 m² per carousel (1200 m² total). Major components are pre-fabricated for bolt-on assembly—no welding required.
