The JDN Husky Adventure in Norway and Sweden

In March 2013 Frode Ulriksen (Westcon, Norway), James Kowalik (Delta Rigging, USA) and Christian Zurek (Glettenberg, Germany) met with JDN Head of Sales Espen Gulliksen for their 7-day JDN Husky Adventure 2013. Impossible to describe that trip without having taken part. Instead, here is, what Frode and James wrote after coming back home – and have a look at the fantastic pictures that Frode has taken. Thanks, Frode, for these ones!

You can see a lot more of Frodes shots at our facebook-gallery. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.555404574482232.1073741825.360948767261148&type=1

Frode Ulriksen: „Would like to thank you all for one great week at JDN Husky adventure. Very difficult to explain how wonderful this trip was from start to the end. We have exciting trip to Sweden’s highest waterfall and long dog sledding trips many days. Ice fishing at lake, sauna, good weather, extremely good atmosphere and nice and wonderful dogs. This memories will last my life out!!“

James Kowalik: „Hard to place into words just what an amazing trip we had to Sweden. I wanted to have you send my extreme “thank you”. We ate good, we drank even better and we laughed often mostly at ourselves as we tried to learn the dogs & sleds.“

Changing Derrick mans cabin at Oseberg C.

Last year one of our customer changed the Derrick mans cabin at the derrick tower at Oseberg C by lifting operations. For doing these lifting operations they use JD NEUHAUS hydraulic driven hoists, hook suspended with WLL 10 and 25 Tons capacity. These hoists have sensitive, infinitely variable speed control for lifting and lowering operations. Extremely low noise emissions and integrated overload protections. Also ideal for applications in explosion risk areas. They bought the hoists for future operations and rental 1 pcs. HPU (Hydraulic Power Unit) and hoses from our rental shop in Haugesund. The electric panel for the HPU unit do operate with Eexde IP66 Hazardous Area: Zone 1 & 2. 

For doing this kind of work they need a hoist with exactly perfect lifting/ lowering speed, the 25 ton,s hoist do have a speed who handle this very well with 1.2 m/ min. The helping hoist with WLL 10T have a lifting speed at full load at 1.7 m/ min.
