Heavy lift operator Lift and Shift India set a new Indian record when handling a single module weighing 4,532 tonnes, for Mumbai High North Offshore Project. The module was the heaviest module fabricated in India to date.

The company was contracted by Larsen and Toubro Modular Fabrication division to handle seven modules weighing a total of 23,500 tonnes for the NWIS Mumbai High North project. The heaviest weighed 4,532 tonnes, five modules ranged from 3,000 tonnes and 4,400 tonnes in weight and the smallest module weighed 685 tonnes.

Meticulous planning ensured the load-out was completed in 20 days on barges of the 330 and 400 class.

The operation involved preparing the axles in the desired format of 5 file/6 files, preparing the barge with pre-loadout ballast and then loading the modules onto the barge during the rising tide.
