CTS provided all the R/A equipment, consumables, and equipment required for the blasting and coating teams. The team was handpicked from our pool of skilled ex-shipyard pipe and steel fitters/welders with very good knowledge and relevant certificates. Experienced Blasting/Coating teams were deployed for the project

Result

The project was delivered safely, within time and quality to the Client

Overview

CTS was called upon to provide painting and maintenance services for the top deck of three offshore wind HV transformer platforms located in the North Sea off the coast of Germany. The platforms are situated in a harsh corrosive environment and have become stressed from the heavy workload of container movements. The wear and tear of these conditions mean that they must undergo regular maintenance, including new paint and protective coatings. It is for this reason, the client, a major European electricity transmission system operator, entrusted CTS to find a cost-effective solution.

Result

Despite the stringent travel measures due to the COVID-19 outbreak, CTS was able to quickly assemble a qualified team to complete the works on each platform within the two-month time frame. Each team built a climate-controlled tent around the work area, to ensure the ideal conditions were maintained throughout the descaling, steel preparation and coating process. The client was pleased with the CTS team’s competence and attention to detail.

Overview

CTS was awarded a contract with a major ship management company to carry out various projects onboard their fleet of container ships. The scope of work required blasting and coating services and HFO tank cleaning onboard 14 container ships over the course of 5 months. CTS had worked with the company in the past and was entrusted to provide a safe and effective solution.

Result

Each of the client’s vessels varied in the extent of work needed; however, CTS’s expert teams were able to react quickly while safely completing the scope of work on time and under budget. The HFO tank cleanings required extra care as the process involved reheating, which can produce hazardous gases within the tank. Although, CTS’s experience working with HFO ensured that the projects were carried out to meet safety standards. All works were thoroughly completed and confirmed by the Chief Engineer.

Overview

Columbia Cruise Services reached out to CTS to undertake various
projects on-board their ship, the Marella Dream, in preparation
for its 7th Class Renewal Survey. CTS assembled a team of 59
technicians with a wide range of specializations to fulfill the large
scope of projects over the course of 2 months. Our experience in
major turnkey EPC projects enabled us to implement a strategy to
complete the full extent of work on time while meeting our high
standard for quality.

Result

Due to the age of the ship, there was a significant amount of steelwork required. Additionally, since numerous modifications had been carried out over the lifetime of the vessel, the drawings provided were no longer accurate. Fortunately, our team conducted a pre-evaluation to get a sense of these potential obstacles early on.

CTS worked closely with the owners to avoid any delays and was able to complete the project safely and on schedule. Columbia Cruise Services was impressed by our team’s expertise and requested for CTS to assist with future projects.

Overview

The BorWin gamma topside has been successfully welded to its jacket by CTS Teams, a location 130km off the German shore, deep in the North Sea. This key milestone marks completion of a critical hook-up phase during the massive offshore project that will deliver enough clean energy over one million homes via the German national grid.

Constructed between 2014 and 2018 at DryDocks World in Dubai, and commanding half of its capacity, this 900MW HVDC converter platform began its voyage to where it would be united with its jacket, already installed 40m’s deep. During its journey the megastructure battled treacherous weather conditions and was delayed despite its impressive size and construction as the sophisticated equipment and technology housed within the chassis demanded proper protection.

Overview

Contracted by Leading Oil Major for Company’s 216,000m³ LNG Vessel, we deployed a team of IRATA certified technicians to conduct cosmetic maintenance and repairs on aloft areas, accommodation and engine casing bulkheads.

CTS completed works without disruption to the vessel, meaning no downtime and no lost earning days. Vital for ships that adhere to strict schedules. All rope access gear, PPE and all blasting and painting equipment was supplied by CTS.

Result

We thoroughly blasted and coated an area totalling over 2500m², more than initially estimated, however, undeterred by this we set about delivering the solution to the client within the given timeframe to not impede normal operations.

From start to finish the project was completed to high industry standards and so in keeping with our first-rate quality work.

With full support from the technical superintendent and vessel crew, we were able to complete the job in time, safely and with prolific result.
