JUMP - Jack-Up Maintenance Platform
The JUMP offers safe, reliable and efficient access to the leg. Designed to allow inspection and all maintenance works such as blasting, painting and steel work repairs to be carried out. Driven by an onboard diesel powered HPU, the JUMP requires no external power source from the rig.
The configurations include telescopic cranes, Aerial Platforms, supply & rescue platforms, full enclosure and ancillary power for hand tools, lighting etc.. The JUMP with its various designs is equipped with an International patent.
Inspection and maintenance on the legs of Jack-up Rigs is necessary at regular intervals for both maintenance and Class requirements. Conventionally, scaffolding towers are erected and/or rope access teams utilized, which requires an enormous amount of effort, workforce, time and money. To minimize this effort and increase the scope of achievable and safe offshore work, Palfinger systems developed the concept of JUMP.
Climbing on the existing leg racks, JUMP is designed to provide easy access to the different makes and models of Jack up rigs. The climbing mechanism is adaptable to Opposable or Single Racks and Triangular or Square Lattice leg types. The modular design allows different leg sizes and designs to be easily configured for.
