Removal of the wreck of the vessel, after she sank close to the approach channel to Zeebrugge.
We were engaged by the consortium of contractors to provide engineering design and analysis for the wreck removal operation.
We developed the engineering for the removal of the bow and stern sections of the vessel, working closely with the consortium of contractors as part of the team. There was very little vessel data available and we were able to use our extensive experience to model the vessel sections for the lifts, accounting for all of the necessary uncertainties. A risk-based design approach was used to design a practical lifting method that mitigated the risks involved. Due to vessel availability and the need to remove the wreck sections quickly, we were able to complete the engineering work at short notice, including:
