These cranes will be installed on new wellhead platforms in the Gulf of Thailand for the Bongkot and Arthit concession areas, and the first six cranes will be delivered during the second half of 2011.
Oil States Thailand general manager Frank Timmons said the contract enhances the company’s leadership position in Thailand and the Southeast Asian markets and demonstrates the confidence PTTEP has in its Nautilus brand of offshore marine cranes.
Offshore marine cranes are generally installed on fixed or floating offshore structures and are used to transfer both equipment and people between supply vessels and the platform deck.
Oil States Thailand claims that the cranes meet strict engineering standards and ensure safe and reliable operation in the challenging marine environment.
