At Sohar Port, a key industrial gateway in the Middle East, precision and scale come together in the execution of the NOC Ruya PKG#12 project. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Here, Sarens Nass Middle East (SNME) is playing a pivotal role by supplying high-capacity crawler cranes to support the fabrication of offshore jackets for NOC Qatar, in partnership with L&T MFY and under the ownership of Nass Group LLC.<\/p>\n

With operations running from October 2025 to May 2026, this project highlights SNME\u2019s ability to deliver reliable lifting capacity for large-scale fabrication works. The scope focuses on the rental and deployment of crawler cranes, including three 800-tonne units and one 1600-tonne crane, all configured with 78-metre boom systems to meet the demanding requirements of offshore structure assembly.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the project is the fabrication of offshore jackets\u2014massive steel structures that form the foundation of offshore platforms. These components must be assembled with extreme precision before being transported to their final offshore destination. SNME\u2019s role is central to this process, ensuring that heavy lifts are executed safely, efficiently, and in line with strict project timelines.<\/p>\n

One of the key challenges during the planning phase was the mobilisation of all four heavy crawler cranes within the required timeframe. The logistics were complex: the 800-tonne cranes were shipped from China and Vietnam, requiring 5\u20136 weeks of sea transport, while the 1600-tonne unit was mobilised by road from Saudi Arabia in approximately 1\u20132 weeks. Coordinating these deliveries to align with project milestones was critical to maintaining schedule integrity.<\/p>\n

Once on site, crane assembly required between 6\u20138 days per unit, reflecting the scale and technical complexity of the equipment. Despite some delays due to vessel scheduling, SNME successfully managed the mobilisation phase, ensuring readiness for lifting operations.<\/p>\n

The project\u2019s defining moment lies in its heavy lifting operations. A standout lift involved a Level 2 deck structure measuring 60 metres by 70 metres by 2 metres, with a total weight of 2737 tonnes. Executed at a height of 22 metres and a radius of 18 metres, the lift required a carefully coordinated tandem operation involving multiple cranes. Completed within 8 hours, this single, large-scale pick exemplifies the precision and expertise required for such operations.<\/p>\n

Tandem lifting and controlled crawling techniques were employed to manoeuvre the structure into position, highlighting the importance of synchronisation between crane operators and ground crews. A dedicated team of 25 specialists ensured the safe execution of the lift, managing both the technical and operational complexities involved.<\/p>\n

Beyond the technical achievements, the project contributes to regional economic growth, supporting job creation and reinforcing Sohar\u2019s role as a hub for industrial and energy-related activities. SNME\u2019s proven track record, including previous successful collaborations on major projects, played a key role in securing this contract.<\/p>\n

Through the NOC Ruya PKG#12 project, SNME once again demonstrates its capability to support large-scale energy infrastructure developments with tailored lifting solutions. By combining global logistics, advanced equipment, and on-site expertise, SNME continues to enable the construction of the structures that power the offshore industry.<\/p>\n
