An installation of a large crane aboard an offshore rig moved with standard and modified Hilman Rollers.
Hilman provided (4) 50-ton capacity rollers for the installation of a large crane aboard an offshore rig. This project allowed for two standard rollers and two modified rollers.
Many heavy moves of 100 tons or greater are done with the aid of elastomeric Fabric Preload Pads placed between the roller and load. With Fabric Preload Pads located on top of the roller, less than perfect surfaces canbe negotiated because the contact rolls will bear their proportionate share of the load at all times. These pads are a low cost, simple solution to a less than perfect rolling surface.
