Heavy Structure Weighing & Center of Gravity Verification Services
Fairtex Nigeria Ltd provides accurate heavy structure weighing and center of gravity (COG) verification services for offshore, marine, industrial, and infrastructure projects. Our services support critical lifting, transportation, skidding, loadout, and installation operations by delivering verified load data for safe project execution.
We are capable of weighing structures ranging from 10 tonnes to 40,000 tonnes using internationally recognized methodologies and calibrated weighing systems. Fairtex provides accurate load characterization with weighing accuracy up to ±0.5% of total structure weight, helping operators reduce lifting uncertainty and improve transportation and installation planning.
Typical applications: offshore modules, FPSO topsides, process skids, subsea structures, refinery equipment, marine loadouts, heavy transportation projects, fabrication yard operations, and infrastructure installation projects.
What this service covers
Heavy Structure Weighing
Fairtex performs static weighing operations for heavy industrial structures, modules, vessels, equipment skids, and fabricated assemblies. Our weighing services support load verification prior to lifting, transportation, offshore loadout, or installation activities.
Center of Gravity (COG) Determination
We calculate and verify center of gravity positions to support lifting stability, transportation balance, skidding operations, and structural load distribution analysis. Accurate COG determination reduces operational risk during heavy handling activities.
Load Verification & Transportation Planning
Our weighing services support transportation engineering and lifting studies by providing verified load data for crane selection, axle load analysis, barge stability calculations, and transport configuration planning.
Offshore & Marine Loadout Support
Fairtex supports offshore transportation and marine loadout projects through load verification, weighing supervision, and operational engineering support for barge loading, module transfer, and heavy marine operations.
Engineering Reporting & Compliance Support
We provide comprehensive weighing reports, calibration verification, load distribution analysis, and engineering documentation aligned with international lifting and transportation project requirements.
