About the SaxophoneĪ family unto itself with horns ranging from soprano to baritone and bass, the saxophone was invented by Antoine-Joseph Sax in the 1840s, receiving a patent in 1846. As soon as their position was perfect, each module was jacked down and ready for integration – well within the available timeframe.What kind of instrument is the saxophone? Most might group it in with the brass family, but using a single-reed mouthpiece similar to the clarinet, it's properly considered a wind instrument.
All cargo had to undergo two days of QMS before transport to the site, where the modules were lifted and aligned with previously installed modules. After the ship’s berthing and removal of sea-fastenings and grillage, Mammoet professionals began offloading the modules with 264 axle lines of SPMT. A good example is the unloading of the carrier Mega Trust that arrived at the port on December 1st, 2013, carrying two LNG train modules – at 55 tons each. The challenge is to complete each one safely and according to schedule. For this job, Mammoet is planning and executing hundreds of subprojects: load-outs, load-ins, transport and installation activities. In addition, every single piece of Mammoet equipment - large and small, new and used - has to go through the same inspection. All Gorgon modules must undergo the QMS process.īuilding one of the world’s largest LNG plants without compromising a pristine environment. The philosophy is simple: zero tolerance for the introduction of non-indigenous species. All tasks must be completed with no compromise to the complex Gorgon Quarantine Management System (QMS) – with some 300 procedures, checklists, and guidelines.
Mammoet is responsible for lifting, transportation and installation of all modules, the biggest of which weigh as much as 6,200 tons. Among other qualifications, deep experience with Australian quarantine practices made Mammoet the right choice for the Gorgon team. FROM SHIP TO SITE: CARE AND COMPLEXITY ON A MASSIVE SCALEĬhevron has approved Mammoet as their Gorgon partner for the engineered heavy lifting and transport activities. This environmentally sensitive project requires a heavy lifting and transport partner with the engineering capacity, expertise and fleet of equipment to safely manage the offloading and installation of the many modules that arrive - and without any compromise to the stringent Quarantine Management System.
When completed, it will be one of the world’s largest liquefied natural gas plants, providing 15 million tons of LNG per year from Barrow Island, a Class A Nature Reserve in Australia. Gorgon is the single biggest LNG investment in history.
