InterMoor has remained at the forefront of foundation innovation, as the only company worldwide to offer a full conductor installation service in deep water – currently being used for some of the largest ultra-deep water projects in the world.
Our installed conductors are recognized as the superior product to traditionally jetted conductors since the driving process is such a well understood operation geotechnically. We install conductors by driving them to the desired penetration with a MENCK built Deepwater Subsea Hydraulic Hammer Spread, which allows us to provide these services in water depths up to 7,300 ft with +/- 3 inch elevation accuracy. This is achieved through our partnership with sister company MENCK GmbH
