Posted by Irina Tabakina

Drydocks World completed the world’s largest turret mooring system. At almost 100m high, weighing over 11,000 tons and with a diameter of 26 meters, the turret is for the Prelude floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility. Drydocks World has built the world’s largest turret for SBM Offshore, Technip and Shell. Drydocks World has delivered five modules for the Shell FLNG turret mooring system and delivery of module five represents the completion of the crown jewel of this project, with the turret being the heart of the Prelude FLNG.
