CUT utilised our 74” diamond wire cutting machine, electric HPU, umbilical spooler, generator and subsea camera system to cut 42” diameter steel piles, 1” wall thickness, concrete filled.
Challenges with very poor visibility, high volumes of seaweed, strong tides and high water speeds were overcome. Slack tide windows were used, although this provided a limited amount of time to complete operations (deploy, complete cut, and retrieve machine). CUT met all these challenges.
