The lifting pontoon, together with the lock gate, was towed from the North Harbour to the naval base with the assistance of the tugs \u2018Vogelsand\u2019, \u2018Fairplay 81\u2019 and \u2018Fairplay 65\u2019. The 108-metre-long and 49-metre-wide heavy-lift floating crane \u201cGulliver\u201d then lowered the gate from the lifting pontoon into the water before it was guided into the guide rails whilst afloat. \u201cThe deployment of such a colossal vessel is also a rare event for the Wasserstra\u00dfen- und Schifffahrtsamt (WSA) Weser-Jade-Nordsee,\u201d said Julia Jan\u00dfen, spokesperson for the WSA in Bremen.<\/p>\n<p>Photo: NPorts<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WILHELMSHAVEN.
