Pile Fixation

Caley and Houlder collaborated to design the Pile Fixation Tool for supporting the installation of monopile wind turbine structures.

Product Details:

 

The Pile Fixation Tool, which operates between 2m and 10m below the seabed is deployed and remotely operated from the installation vessel, incorporates a high level of redundancy and for safety reasons requires no manual intervention. As well as providing rigid restraint, the system incorporates a means of lowering from the top of the pile, is capable of self-orientation and centralisation.

Key Features:

  • Bespoke design for Monopile Foundation installation support.
  • Vessel deck mounted system consisting of control unit and Pile Fixation Tool (PFT).
  • System positioned on top of Monopile and then PFT runs down pile to interface with pre-installed stabilizing pins in the monopile.
  • Extends them to contact and load against the foundation wall and the borehole walls, thus providing the secure fixing of the monopiles, demanded, prior to the grouting process.
  • System recovered to vessel ready for next pile
