Hey all...
While you're all enjoying airconditioned offices... here's where I'm working

Keppel Fels Ship yard... there are about 10 oil rigs being built or refubished here... check out the size of the crane in the back ground...


This is probably the biggest rig I've ever seen the Ocean Endeavour...Huge... Big enough for a double poleroid... Can't merg images on the Hotel PC... Sorry



And finally moi... fully dressed up and dragging cables around a rig in 36 degree heat and 90% humidity.. Fun... I think I sweated 10 liters today.

[Davey]

Ocean Endeavour hey.... did some comms work on that rig many many moons ago.... fcuk makes me feel old

Rig was build in Freo. A few trips I did in a chopper was in an Okanagan operated Sikorski S-61.... gives you an idea on the size of the helideck.

Those "Big Fn cranes is what I install/maintain/service/repair. all the control gear is up the ** top and that's what we do, climbing up, not in balmy 36c but 46+ with the visible wind all arround yers while big arse dumptrucks wanna run yer over and D11s are every where, a D10T is classed as a baby tonka toy!
Being 60 odd mtrs. above a big arse crusher on a wobly shitty platform and lousy pay

Is it just me or is the biggest crane on wheels?

[g0zer]

mmm humidity.. i just got back from two trips on the hop.. telfer (47C) then straight to malaysia (95% humidity 33C). It will all be over soon mate. Just think, right now i am lowering my tyre pressures for the tuning day and then trakdayz sitting in air conditioning drinking a brew and all that suffering is gone.

Same in Malaysia - same in Jakarta (the better class of taxi anyhow)... there's something about turning the aircon up until the inside of the car reaches glacial conditions that I simply don't understand


BTW - what happened to your feet? Who cut of your feet?

It is the biggest telescopic mobile crane in the world, but you can get bigger ones in different configurations. This one can lift around 600t from memory...and is, as all good and beautifull things, you guessed it...from Germany ....btw, they built not only cranes, but mining equipment and household appliances too...
