Consequence:
1) Minimal clearance between the tubing with tie down
attachment. This requires extreme care when cutting the
tiedown braces to avoid damage to the tubings which could
jeopardise the grout packer and pile gripper activation.

if upending the pile using trunnions.
Consequence:
Delay (additional 1.5 days) in overall grouting operation due to
the need to set grout plug at pile sleeve A2, B1 and B2 as means
of grout seal .

Why:
Based on COMPANY's investigation and complimented by
Pronal's investigation findings, the grout packer failure was
neither due to product defect nor damage during installation at
yard. This is QC'ed with factory acceptance test and yard function
test. The 6mm pile upending trunnion residual protrusion and
sharp edges on the surface of the trunnion after flame cut could
have punctured the grout packer.

estimated weight resulting to the used of Main Hook.
2) Not sufficient protection on the main deck for the equipments.
3) Close proximity between the heavy lift slings and
