ACE 500te Reel Drive System for Prelude FLNG project

ACE 500te Reel Drive System for Prelude FLNG project

The scope of work saw ACE Winches spool 4400m of umbilical, with a diameter of 229mm on to a 12.2m reel.

ACE Winches supplied a total of ten qualified commissioning engineers and technicians to assemble the ACE 500te Reel Drive System on the quayside, before operations commenced, with a further six operating technicians providing a 24 hour service to complete the first phase of spooling.

The 500te RDS consists of two towers that disassemble into eight modules for easy transportation. The towers use a slave and master configuration, with two gear boxes in each drive hub.
