Hello,

Hope that you are you well.

Today i thought i would show a couple of images of different rope access teams.

The above image, is a team accessing the top of a north sea oil and gas platform flare.

The above image, is a technician abseiling down from working at the top of a leg on a jack up oil and gas platform.

These images may look like fun, but an 80m vertical ladder is not. Ha!

Take care and have a good week.

The next lift to be completed was the helideck. 

It was amazing to see these huge bits of an oil rig, look almost insignificant against the huge Saipem S7000 cranes. 

 

Thanks
