Offshore Containers · Cargo Lashing & Container Equipment
Cargo Basket by MKAP Container Sdn Bhd is a cargo basket intended to be handled as certified lifting equipment in marine or offshore cargo operations. It is used between the crane hook and the load, or forms the load-carrying structure itself, depending on the installed arrangement. Repeated lifting exposes the item to dynamic loading, impact, corrosion and wear at pins, pad eyes, welds and contact surfaces. Continued serviceability depends on structural integrity, legible identification and traceability to the vessel or facility lifting-gear records. Different variants may use different dimensions, sling arrangements or approved loads. The exact inspection and rejection criteria must therefore be taken from the manufacturer documentation and applicable lifting-gear regime.
What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Carry out a pre-use visual inspection and remove the item from service if cracks, deformation, severe corrosion, damaged lifting accessories or missing identification are found. Keep drains, lower structural members and welds clean enough for inspection. Examine pins, shackles, slings and pad eyes as a complete lifting system rather than inspecting the main structure alone. Periodic thorough examination, NDT and proof testing must follow the applicable flag/class/company lifting-gear regime and the maker instructions. Do not invent or apply generic wear limits; use the approved documentation for the exact acceptance criteria.
| Visual pre-use inspection | before each lift |
|---|---|
| Detailed inspection | annually or per class/flag requirement |
| Proof load test | typically every 4 years for offshore cargo/personnel transfer baskets - confirm against the specific DNV TA certificate and applicable class rules |
| Sling/wire rope renewal | condition-based per inspection findings and certificate expiry |
Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.
Offshore cargo transfer baskets under DNV Type Approval require a valid load test certificate and legible SWL marking before use; class/flag surveys typically check TA certificate validity, sling condition and structural integrity as part of periodic lifting equipment surveys.
Keep correctly rated and certified replacement shackles, pins, locking devices and any removable lifting accessories specified for the item. Where the lifting set uses dedicated slings, maintain a replacement set or an approved procurement route. Structural members should not be treated as generic onboard spares; repairs require an approved procedure and restoration of certification as applicable.
