Jumbo Kinetic Lifts Record 2086 Tonnes

Recently, the Jumbo Kinetic loaded two giant reactors at Walter Tosto in the port of Ortona, destined for the Thaioil Clean Fuel Project.

One of the reactors weighed 2086 tonnes, the heaviest reactor a K-class heavy lift vessel has lifted. The second reactor was almost as heavy weighing an impressive 1921 tonnes and both pieces measured about 60 metres in length with a 6-metre diameter.

To meet the 6.8-metre draft restrictions in Ortona, the Jumbo team lightened the vessel by removing the tween decks and pontoon hatch covers.

Then the vessel sailed to Porto Marghera to lift another two reactors.
