Trelleborg's skirt pile gripper is designed to create a temporary connection between an offshore platform's pile and the jacket during the grouting process. Welded onto the upper section of the jacket skirt pile, the gripper reduces risk during platform installation. Until the grout between the pile and the jacket has set and the installation is complete, the gripper holds the jacket's piles firmly in place to provide temporary retention of the jacket's elevation position during leveling operations and grout setting.
