ALE Announces Mega Jack Expansion In Europe
ALE is to deliver a new multi-point system to its UK branch as part of the company's Mega Jack 300 fleet expansion in Europe.
The expansion will help deliver a number of civils projects across the continent.
Launched in 2018, Mega Jack 300 is the latest jacking innovation that enables site optimisation and project efficiency.
The system was designed in-house by ALE's R&D department for a cost-effective solution to jack-up heavy modules on sites where space is restricted or congested in short periods of time. The system has already demonstrated its time efficiency, increased stability and compactness while jacking-up hundreds of pipe rack modules over 5m high in Kuwait.
Russ Jones, Director, UK, said: "We are delighted to have this innovative system operating in the UK. We have secured several civil projects where this system is ideally suited; it will demonstrate the system's strength and capabilities to optimise project schedules."
A number of bridge projects are lined up to benefit from the new system across the UK in early 2019.
