The K4000 floating crane & pipelaying vessel is the marine engineering conversion project; in the project, an existing unpowered 3,800-tonnage derrick barge was to be upgraded and converted to a pipelaying vessel with a DP3 dynamic positioning system. It has advanced facilities and high pipelaying speed, and can provide service for marine construction in the world, and it is one of the most efficient pipelaying vessels in the globe.
