with the deployment of the finest international expertise and state-of-the-art technology.<\/p>\n<p>The priorities of the project were clear from the outset: respect for the environment, workplace safety and protection of Isola del Giglio\u2019s socio-economic fabric.<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing the bids of the six finalists, Costa had awarded the tender for the contract to remove the ship in one piece to the international\u00a0consortium Titan-Micoperi Srl, a joint venture between <a href=\"http:\/\/www.titansalvage.com\/\">Titan <\/a>Salvage, a U.S. company owned by Crowley Maritime Group and a world leader in the recovery of wrecks, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.micoperi.com\/\">Micoperi<\/a>, an Italian company specializing in engineering and installation of offshore structures and undersea pipelines.<\/p>\n<p>The wreck removal project includes contributions from some of the world\u2019s top technical engineering experts, notably leading international naval and offshore engineering, architecture and design firms such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ceccarelliyachtdesign.com\/\">Ceccarelli <\/a>Yacht Design, Studio <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teconsrl.it\/\">Tecon<\/a> of Milan, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spline.it\/\">Spline<\/a> of Venice, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.overdick.com\/\">Overdick<\/a> of Hamburg and the Dutch underwater solutions provider <a href=\"http:\/\/www.disa-international.com\/\">Disa<\/a> International. All the work involved is being performed by industry leaders like the Italian companies <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fincantieri.it\/\">Fincantieri<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cimolai.com\/?lang=en\">Cimolai<\/a>, Rosetti, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trevispa.eu\/viewdoc.asp?co_id=87\">Trevi<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fagioli.it\/\">Fagioli<\/a> and Nuova <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuovaolmec.it\/\">Olmec<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The salvage plan can be divided into 5 phases.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Stabilization (completed)<\/li>\n<li>False sea bed and sponsons on offshore side (completed)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theparbucklingproject.com\/?lang=uk\">Parbuckling<\/a> (completed)<\/li>\n<li>Survey of the wreck and installation of 15 sponsons on the inshore side and the last four on the offshore side (completed)<\/li>\n<li>Refloating (completed)<\/li>\n<li>Transportation and dismantling\/recycling<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In the occasion of this big event, Vector provided for the set up of the press room, audio and video services, technical support through electrical, IT and communication infrastructures. In this way journalists coming from all over the world had the essential instruments to stay connected with their newspapers outside Isola del Giglio and had the possibility to follow live all the refloating and removal operations from the conference and press rooms set up for the occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Once afloat, the wreck of the Concordia has been transported to its final port of destination for dismantling and recycling, namely Genova Voltri. This operation was directed by Titan Micoperi, the marine salvage consortium in charge of the removal of the Concordia.<\/p>\n<p>The wreck reached Voltri port on Sunday, July 28th. It has ended the journey which brought it where it was born 9 years ago. Also here, Vector has set up a press area where the journalists could follow the docking operations.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1645,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[43],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-1663","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/1663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1663"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/1663\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=1663"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_skills","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_skills?post=1663"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vectorgroup.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tags?post=1663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
