A Whale of a Delivery!

We had a whale of a time in Edinburgh recently, delivering a sculpture to the new Granton Gasholder Park. This incredible piece, designed by artist Svetlana Kondakova Muir, was created in collaboration with the local community and depicts the head of a humpback whale emerging from the ground.

Our team carefully navigated height restrictions to ensure a smooth delivery - first bringing our artic hiab into the structure, then reversing our low loader under the entrance. The sculpture was then transferred from the low loader onto a short-bodied platform on the hiab. Operator Gerry then drove to the location within the park before positioning the structure in its final position.

Finishing touches will be made to the sculpture over the coming weeks, for visitors to admire the striking new feature in this iconic space.
