LM Lifting & Handling Systems
provides a range of equipment and
services to the global subsea and
marine construction industries for
purchase or rental.
Packaged tooling, complete with specialist
engineers and project management (if
required), provides comprehensive
turn-key support to projects such as
jacket and monopile installations and
subsea construction works. (Pile driving
hammers, pile top drills and grouting
services can also be provided by LDD
and MENCK).
Our engineering business unit fabricates
custom-engineered equipment or any
temporary works you might require for
your project. Our fabrication lead times are
typically between 8 to 12 weeks.
Typically LM lifting and handling equipment
is modular and shipped in standard ISO
containers, designed to DNV or Lloyds
standards and CE marked.

StabFrame: Pile Guide Frames
The StabFrame is a deep water pile
guide frame.
• Opening and open sleeve configuration
• Varying ‘quick-fit’ mud mat
configurations
• 5 degree levelling base. Full integrated
survey and monitoring packages
• Pile position (<1m), orientation
(<2 degrees), verticality (<1 degree)
• Full marine operability & pile stability
analysis service, including geotechnical
analysis and report.
HRS: Hydraulic Release
Shackles
Hydraulic release shackles range from
35 to over 1000 tonne for both surface
and sub-sea operation.
Our hydraulic release shackles are
typically used where unhooking the load
is not possible or the associated risks
and/or costs of unhooking are too great.
• Operation subsea to 2000m ++
• Various Hydraulic Power Unit and
Umbilical options
• Full WROV intervention - optional
Pre-piling Templates
LDD can provide a number of solutions.
• Pre-piling templates that can be
configured for tripod, quad or other
jacket structures
• Fixed one-off pre-piling templates
• Incorporation of pile grippers and other
installation tooling
• Incorporation of survey and camera
equipment
• Modular and folding units for reduced
deck space.
• Safety feature to override hydraulic
failure.
Our frames are designed to minimise
hydro-dynamic loadings. Levelling
systems can be incorporated.
PLT: Pinned Lifting Tools
ILT: Internal Lifting Tools
PUT: Pile Upending Tool
PLTs feature a simple single mechanical
pinning system for securing to, upending
and lifting piles on surface and subsea.
The pin is typically removed manually by
personnel, WROV, or remote hydraulics.
ILTs can be easily inserted in a vertical or
horizontal position and can be used to a
depth of 2,000m ++.
LDD's upending equipment is
engineered and built to aid the lifting
and handling of piles to 7m diameter,
hydraulic hammers and large diameter
bottom hole drilling assembly
arrangements, etc.
Range: 36-54”, 60-96”, 96-108”, 108”5.5m under development.
PLTs operate both above and below
water with operational water depth limited
only by WROV depth rating.
Additional sealing units facilitate suction
or pressurization within the pile to assist
in pile installation or removal. The ILT
self-locks once a lifting load is applied to
ensure fail-safe operation.
Range: 24", 28", 36", 42", 48", 54", 60",
72", 84", 96", 108" ++.
Fixed range: 24", 30", 36", 42", 48“, 54“,
60“, 68“, 72“, 78“, 84“, 96“.
Variable range: 24"- 48" & 48"- 96".
