SOFEC designed, constructed, and installed a CALM Buoy system to accommodate up to 450,000 dwt tankers.
This export CALM system was installed in 23m water depth. This includes extension of the existing 36-in. sealines and removal of two existing CBM. This is the fourth project in which SOFEC has been involved in the replacement of a CBM system with a more efficient SPM system and the second for ADCO.
