Resolution at Dublin port 8th. December 2006

The Resolution has been designed to install wind turbines in hostile coastal environments.
It was constructed in China's Shanhaiguan shipyard at Qinhuangdao.
As soon as the six-leg vessel arrives at the installation site, it is manoeuvred into place using dynamic positioning and jacked clear of the water, turning the ship into a stable working platform.

M.V. Ville and M.V. Jopi in Dublin 26th.October 2006 removing rubble from the on-going
building on the south quays.

The MV's Ville, & Jopi are purpose built self discharging rock carriers whose laden draught
of only 2.20 metres allows access to most locations. Discharge is effected by four hydraulically
operated tipping skips which means that the whole cargo of 500 tonnes can be discharged close
to the point of placing in about 20 minutes.
