Since its introduction in 2016, GustoMSC’s Chela has grown from the drawing board into a piece of equipment that has made all expectations come true. In presence of and with input from involved parties Maersk Drilling, AkerBP, JB systems and Breman Factory, the FAT test was successfully performed showing Chela’s capabilities and facilitating a fast-track start-up for Maersk.

Pioneering Technology
GustoMSC’s Chela, an innovative, multi-functional arm, was filmed during a final test. Maersk Drilling, a leading supplier of drilling rigs to energy companies around the world, is the first offshore company which is going to work with Chela.
The feedback of people who are going to work with the crane is: they are impressed!"
Olav Dahle, D&W Manager Intervention, AkerBP
Chela offers striking efficiency benefits and is a major improvement in terms of safety. Capable to lift 22 tonnes at 21 m radius underneath the cantilever at any position, Chela does not obstruct any wellhead deck space. Both are value drivers for Maersk Drilling and AkerBP.
