Skylift 3000

Lifting heavy structures

Skylift 3000 is designed and build to launch heavy structures such as warships or concrete structures from the quay into the water and vice versa. Skylift can also be used as a movable drydock or transport pontoon. It is a concentional Jack-Up that can submerge without the use of pumps and/or ballast systems. The valves in the top and bottom of the pontoon are opened and the submerging can begin. Very cost effective as it saved a lot of time and low in maintenance. Also much safer as you work above the waterline and is is aways 100% horizontal on it’s spudlegs.

Skylift 3000 is available for charter and sale.

The 4 jacking systems are manufactured with a heavy duty pinning system. Operation of this fast and heavy duty system, lifting and lowering / locking and un-locking, is done completely hydraulically from a control panel located in the control cabin.
