World class heavy lift rope R&D and manufacture Heavy lift ropes and slings are manufactured at its new purpose built rope production facility at Viana do Castello, on the coast about 80 km north of Porto, Portugal. The factory covers some 3,600m² production facilities together with 2,400m² storage area. In addition to rope production, the factory includes a large make-up and storage area for the preparation of mooring ropes, and heavy lift ropes. State-of-the-Art R&D Facility Lankhorst Ropes is committed to the on-gong development of heavy lift synthetic fibre ropes. The state-of-the-art research...

SYNTHETIC FIBER TETHERS Synthetic Fiber Tethers have a proven track in demanding offshore applications such as riser and umbilical tethers and mooring mid-water arches. The use of synthetic fiber tethers such as the LANKO®FORCE & GAMA98® Dyneema® has significant performance advantages over chain and steel wire tethers. In addition to being lighter and with almost neutral buoyancy, synthetic fiber tethers offer: • Reduced cost of buoyancy elements • No corrosion • No fatigue issues • Easy system installation V a WlreCo® Wo rid Group Brand

Lankhorst /topes Synthetic fibre ropes slings are easier to handle especially where manual handling is required, and as strong as conventional steel wire rope but 7 times lighter. Too large to fit into either normal containers or onto conventional transporters, the transportation, handling and installation of heavy items are normally one-off projects. The lighter fibre sling allows the crane to handle heavier loads, as there is less weight in the sling, enabling maximum payload lift. In addition, the lift is gentler, avoiding unnecessary damage to the load. Lankhorst offers the LANKO®FORCE 12...

INDUSTRY LEADING ROPE TEST FACILITY Lankhorst Ropes has a dedicated rope test machine for loads up to 1,200 tonnes. It can also conduct tension-tension fatigue testing of ropes to any fatigue regime specified by clients and certified verification authorities. The test facility can be used for proof loading and length verification of slings up to 25m in accordance with various industry standards such as APL, ABS and DNV rules.

FIBER ROPE DEPLOYMENT SYSTEMS HEAVY LIFT Demands for deepwater lifting and lowering have grown steadily as the oil and gas industry has sought to increase the extent of subsea processing. As a result the industry is now faced with the need for lifting and lowering heavy and sizable subsea processing units into deeper waters. The weight of steel wire ropes makes wire rope lifting/lowering systems both inefficient and impractical at water depths greater than 2,000m - 3,000m. At 3,000m, the lifting capacity is reduced by 50%; the other 50% is to support the weight of the steel wire. The solution...

l^ankhorst Ropes Continued rising requirements in offshore technology on lifting capacity, depth and equipment reliability have led in turn to increasing demands on large ropes in very long lengths. The use of LANKO®FORCE12 strand ropes will allow operators and contractors to meet the more important requirements with regards to reducing weight per length, corrosion resistance, environmental protection, ergonomics and personal safety.

LANKO®FORCE 12 strand braided rope, made of Dyneema® yarns. This rope forms an excellent alternative to steel wire ropes. The strength is higher than that of conventional steel wire rope and the corresponding weight is 7 times lower! This rope is floating. number (inches) (mm) (kg/100m) (kN) (lbs/100 ft) (lbs) Diameter, weight and MBF (as well as other mechanical and physical properties) are determined according ISO 2307:2005. The MBF refers to the breaking strength in the rope/wire itself, without splices or any other form of termination that can be formed with or without the...
