[Performance] The Launch and Transportation of 14,900 tons of IHI Fore Tera Block

  • Freight Owner :

    IHI Corporation (Japan)

  • Project Period :

    June 2016

  • Cargo Volume :

    14,914 tons of FPSO Ship Block

  • Transportation Route :

    Goseong, Gyeongsangnam-do – Singapore

  • Details of the Project

    This ship block, manufactured by Samkang M&T shipbuilding yard in Goseong, Gyeongsangnam-do, is 110.5m in length, 50m in width, 40m in height and 14,914 tons in weight, which means that it is the largest size for a single ship block in the world. This ship block made up of 96 smaller blocks is scheduled to be used for constructing the FPSO which will sail to Catcher Oil Field in Norway. The size of this block corresponds to half of the size of the whole ship.
    KCTC safely transported the ship block to Singapore via the submergible ship after having moved the ship block to the floating dock using SPMT 324 AXLES. Through this project, KCTC has renewed the Guinness World Records for the heaviest load moved by self-propelled modular trailers (SPMTs). The previous record holder was Lamprell, which had moved 13,191 tons, but now KCTC has become the new Guinness Record Holder and globally famous.
