The world’s largest 150-meter-class piledriving barge has started its construction, undertaken by ZPMC’s Qidong Offshore Engineering. It has the world’s largest pile-lifting capacity, longest pile-driving reach and the strongest wind and wave resistance.This barge represents a significant initiative for ZPMC to bolster its core competitiveness in the construction of deep-sea bridges and offshore wind power pile foundations. Notably, the barge achieves centimeter-level precision in #deepsea pile driving positioning. Featuring an integrated pile-driving operation management system, the barge includes a real-time hydrological information system, operational assistance decision-making, automatic identification of operational procedures, and the automatic generation of pile-sinking data. This system enhances the vessel’s intelligence and digital capabilities in pile-driving operations. Moreover, this project marks the introduction of diesel-electric hybrid power technology in large-scale construction vessels. The vessel incorporates direct current grid technology, effectively reducing carbon emissions.
