Jumbo Shipping brought the 1,800-tonne J-lay tower back home from Port Gentil, Gabon, to the port of Flushing, in the Netherlands. Jumbo lifted the pipeline production facility from Subsea 7's Pipe Laying barge Acergy Polaris onto its J-type Fairpartner. The tower will undergo maintenance and then be reinstalled on board the Seven Borealis at the beginning of 2012, according to a statement from the Netherlands-based heavy-lift carrier.
