World-leading
Port Technologies
BlueLift combines two world leaders in port technology: Tugdock and Sarens. The result is a modular dock and heavy-lift crane for Port of Los Angeles, at a fraction of the cost and development time of conventional pier construction.
Tugdock
The firm has invented a modular, floating dock system in which 3m x 7m buoyant air bags are fixed within steel frames and bolted one to another to create a large, heavy weight-bearing dock structure.
• A small fraction of the capital cost of conventional pier development.
• No pile driving, no permanent construction, no bay fill, no major dredging.
• Includes a detachable, fully submersible, 100m x 100m section to launch or dry-dock any heavy vessel.
Sarens
The world leader in heavy-lift solutions. The firm will custom-design a ring crane for BlueLift’s site based on the Sarens family of SGC-140 and SGC-250 cranes:
• Fully electric, zero emissions, connected to the onshore transmission grid.
• Lifting capacity for any conceivable load and task: offshore wind assembly; offshore oil decommissioning; or other uses.
