Encouraging Active Participation in Innovation

Jurong Shipyard’s annual Workplace Safety and Health Innovation
Teams Convention was organised on May 25, 2010 as part of efforts to
encourage active involvement by employees in innovating work processes
for productivity, safety and workplace improvements.

A total of eight teams presented their innovative projects and competed for top honours in this final
round of competition (see below for details of winning projects).
Introducing the gadget.

Winning Projects
1st Prize: Team Dolphin – “Dynamic Tripod”
The Machinery and Electrical Department developed the Dynamic
Tripod in their quest to streamline the assembly, installation and lifting
processes involved in thrusters installation.
The innovation is a specially designed platform which enables the
easy loading of the strand jacks via lifting equipment in workshops.
This provides a safer and more efficient alternative to the conventional
method of manually lifting strand jacks during thrusters installation.
This new method minimises workers’ exposure to physical strain and
injuries while reducing the amount of manpower and time required to
complete the process. This has led to a two-fold increase in productivity
as well as manpower and cost-savings of up to 50%.

2nd Prize: LIFE Team – “OctoMaster”

The OctoMaster innovation conceived by the LIFE Team from HVAC and Hydraulic Department is a
systematic, one-stop solution for the safe and efficient overhaul of butterfly valves.
The device significantly decreases the use of manual force
and the amount of lifting during the overhaul. By using
two remotely-operated jacking systems to assemble the
butterfly valve, this innovation eliminates manual hammering
and strenuous use of muscular strength during the process.
Besides reducing the risk of physical strain and injuries, the
OctoMaster has led to a three-fold increase in productivity,
manpower savings of 60% and cost-savings of about 85%.

3rd Prize: Dragon Force Team – “Telescopic Quayside Gangway”

The Telescopic Quayside Gangway was developed by the Dock Department and Sembcorp Marine
Technology in their search for a safe, flexible and cost-efficient solution to control extreme variations in
steepness on the horizontal gangway.
Instead of relying on shore cranes to reposition the gangway,
this innovative gangway is designed with an extendable end
section to allow users the flexibility to adjust its inclination
according to tidal changes. It is also designed with features
such as inline steps for improved safety, front and rear
stoppers to minimise gangway travelling, and long-end
rollers for enhanced stability.
This innovation effectively keeps the inclination angle of the horizontal gangway within safe limits
throughout the entire tidal cycle, thereby reducing the risk of slips, trips and falls. Operational efficiency
is also further enhanced with the freeing up of the cranes for other purposes.
