Our Air Lift Bags (ALBs) are immensely versatile and ideal for safely supporting and lifting loads at or from any depth. The single point attachment is ideal for lightening underwater static structures such as pipes and templates, or for salvaging vessels from the seabed to the surface. They are robust and highly resistant to damage even in the harshest environments.

WeightAn ideal solution for pipelaying, shallow-water salvage and towing and draught reduction, the buoyancy of each Inflatable Buoyancy Unit (IBU) can be controlled from the surface as required during and after the operation. This gives users the ability to safely apply and remove the IBU to the load at zero capacity, only activating the buoyancy when it is needed.

Designed for laying steel or HDPE pipelines and general support at or near the surface, Mono Buoyancy Units (MBUs) are attached to the load via a single point of connection. This massively reduces the time it takes to rig them up compared to multi-attachment alternatives. It is also possible to lift through or moor onto SEAFLEX™ MBUs.

SEAFLEX™ MBUsRevolutionising Pipelaying

No other cable-laying buoyancy system offers the benefit of continuous support to the cable to avoid damage via point-loading, along with the operational advantages of being able to drop the cable to the seabed and then lift it again at will. Once launched, payout speeds in excess of 10m/minute have been achieved.
