Instead of fighting nature, Crowley used its forces to help us move a new drilling rig and platform into position." -Gary Carlson • Senior Vice President • Forest Oil Corporation

In Cook Inlet, Alaska, where the tide runs hard, planning and execution were critical in getting this huge module up and running for Forest Oil. We transported the drilling package and platform from Alaska to Korea, where an accommodations module was added. Then we shipped it back to Alaska where four high-horsepower Crowley tugs towed the platform through the treacherous waters of Cook Inlet to its site at high tide and held it in position.

As the tide ran out, we floated our barge away and the job was done.
