| SVITZER receives AKPO Safety Award |
June 05, 2009 |
 |
Mid October 2008, the AKPO FPSO was safely delivered to her final destination, the AKPO oil field offshore Nigeria, assisted by SVITZER's ocean going tug SINGAPORE. SVITZER Ocean Towage was awarded the towage contract to tow the giant FPSO of 310 meters long and 77 meters wide, using three ocean-going tugs developing a combined bollard pull of about 570 tons. The voyage started in Ulsan, Korea and after a journey of 11,550 nautical miles, it ended at the AKPO field. With one additional tug assisting the transport to go around the coast of South Africa and the Cape of Good Hope (where the transport faced waves of more than 20 meters), four tugs were used for the installation and mooring of the FPSO to the anchor lines pre-installed by the client. In recognition of a job well done, SVITZER Ocean Towage was presented with the AKPO Safety Award (with Distinction) by Total Upstream Nigeria Ltd. on 2 June 2009
