Offshore Masts

Vertically Assesmbled Telescoping

Loadmaster’s series of vertically assembled telescoping offshore masts, also known as “Bootstrap” masts are configured for the mobility required in the Gulf of Mexico market and regions of similar activity. These masts are mobilized with conventional supply vessels, and are installed with the platform service crane. The installation and erection of these masts is accomplished with a trained rig crew, and do not require specialized crews.

This mature series of mast designs have evolved to satisfy a wide variety of challenges in this market. In particular, the “Dynamic Assist” structure option allows a fixed platform mast to be used in a dynamic application such as TLP or SPAR, or in a region of seismic activity. The range of sizes and specialty application, are noted below with associated features:
