The Waterhammer is a hydraulic impact piling hammer that is controlled with a hydraulic system that uses water instead of oil. It’s designed for piling jobs in (ultra) deep water.
The Waterhammer can be used at water depths up to 2,000 meters. By using water, on certain depth, we eliminate the need to return the liquid medium back to surface, which saves on energy and makes it efficient. The Waterhammer can be used in every type of water (Salt or Fresh water) and is suitable for all piling jobs, like driving pipeline initiation piles, PLEM foundation piles, subsea template foundation piles, piles for jackets, conductors and mooring systems of FPSO’s, FSO’s and SMP’s.
