DP2 offshore heavy lift jack-up vessel Apollo being built for the Deme Group company GeoSea is already finding useful employment in the Uljanik Shipyard in Pula, Croatia.

After the jacking system had been successfully commisioned earlier this year in February by Gusto MSC the vessel has often been the focal point of the port, jacked up, looking over the roof tops of the town  Lifting a pontoon in the shipyard is simple for the 800t TTS Leg-Encircling crane.

The Apollo has become an integral part of the Pula skyline
