At AXTech we have a special relationship with Pull-in Systems for Risers and Buoys. For many years this has been one of our most successful areas and we have delivered a large number of projects.

Riser pull-in systems are normally equipped with some 400-800 m of wire or rope, and have a pulling capacity of 150 – 850T. Most systems are based on hydraulic drives, but electrical drives may also be delivered.  

All systems have design and performance to suit client’s requirements and most of the systems are certified for operations in hazardous areas.

AXTech’s pull-in systems are often a combination of winches, HPUs, sheaves, sheave trollies and structures. Some system may also include spooling devices and compensators.

Typical AXTech systems:

• Skidding system, or part of system, installed on special made trolley moving along vessels ship side. Sheave (or winch) can be positioned in dedicated locations for each individual pull-in operation.
• Skidding systems on circular rail systems on turret. Sheave (or winch) can be positioned in dedicated locations for each individual pull-in operation.
• Stationary winch for pull-in of buoy (Submerged Turret Systems), risers and anchor chains.
