Titan Logistics recently completed a couple of heavy-duty jobs in Singapore, covering both infrastructure and leisure projects.

The first was the lifting of the luxury boat Braveheart at Jurong Port. Carried out for Coli Shipping & Transport Group, the job entailed lifting the 430-ton 40-meter-long Braveheart from the transport vessel Lena. The rigging, weighing 84 tons, had to be taken into account because of the boat’s soft hull.

A 1600-ton Sheerleg Crane Barge was used to discharge the boat from the vessel. The smaller crane barges could not perform the job due to their limited hook-height. Titan personnel were involved in planning, rigging design and execution of the job together with the technical department of SAL Shipping, the captain and superintendent of the vessel, Coli Shipping. Boat was discharged safely from the vessel to the waters off Jurong Port, Singapore.

The second job was the transportation of a rail-grinding vehicle for Singapore Mass Rapid Transport (SMRT) for the island’s MRT network.  The rail-grinding vehicle consisted of a three-car configuration, with the heaviest car at 45 tons. The units were transported from the port of Singapore to the MRT Depot at Kim Chuan, and later relocated to Bishan Depot.
