Guangzhou Salvage Bureau Pile Stabilisation Platform Newbuilding Project

Project overview

A pile-stabilising platform is positioning and stabilising equipment for the piling of offshore wind turbine monopile foundations. The new platform commissioned by the Ministry of Transport's Guangzhou Salvage Bureau is 62 m long, 26 m wide and 26 m high, weighing about 1,100 tonnes, serving the installation of large monopile foundations in deep waters. The project is included in ZINDN's Anticorrosive Coatings in Marine Engineering Applications.

Anti-corrosion (fire protection) challenge

• The equipment is deployed at sea for long periods, with wave splash and salt deposition coexisting in the splash zone;
• During piling, the pile frame, pile gripper and other parts are subject to friction and impact, requiring high coating damage resistance;
• Large components are built in sections and erected on site; the coating system shall support on-site touch-up.
