In the autumn of 2011, FMC awarded Udeco a contract for a fast landing test including required design work and fabrication of a 14” full scale Ucon tie-in spool inclusive of lift spreader arrangement.
The main scope was to design and develop a fast landing system for a 50Mt subsea tie-in spool and spreader lift. The scope also included the spool fabrication, lifting spreader fabrication, provision of all lift rigging, lifting system certification, fabrication of adjustable landing structures with guideposts, design and fabrication of a Ucon tooling test control panel and performance of the fast landing test. The achieved controlled landing speed for the 50mt spool and spreader was 0.74 m/s.
