ASAKUA
FLOATING PLATFORM — MODULAR WORK SYSTEM

Floating Platform

Floating platform systems for feeding, monitoring and field operations. 5 standard Work Barge models (P1260L–P1680S), 12–16 m × 6–8 m, 6 to 30 t deadweight. FRP grating deck, hot-dip galvanised steel floaters, polyethylene pipe superstructure; hydraulic crane up to 20 MT, manual crane up to 12 T optional.

SYSTEM CORE

ASAKUA floating platform systems are produced in two main categories: a lightweight modular platform for fish farms and sheltered sites, and the Work Barge series for open-ocean conditions. Five standard Work Barge models from P1260L to P1680S consist of FRP grating decks, hot-dip galvanised steel floaters and polyethylene pipe superstructure. Hydraulic or manual cranes, polyurea coating and custom equipment integration are added to project requirements. Each platform is manufactured at our İzmir facility; on-site installation is delivered by ASAKUA teams.

APPLICATION SCENARIOS

Designed for these scenarios.

SCENARIO 01

Cage feeding and monitoring platform

Fixed working platform positioned over the cage farm; provides safe ground for feed silos, automated feeding lines, monitoring systems and operations crew. P1260 model (12 × 6 m, 6–16 t deadweight) suits small and mid-scale sites; P1680 model (16 × 8 m, 12–30 t) is preferred for large farms.

SCENARIO 02

Open-ocean Work Barge — cage installation and maintenance

Work barge carrying crane, equipment and operations crew for cage installation, net change, mooring maintenance and harvest. The P1680S model — 30 t deadweight and 20 MT hydraulic crane capacity — is engineered for open-ocean conditions and heavy-lift operations.

SCENARIO 03

Floating structure base and custom pontoon project

Load-bearing pontoon for coastal engineering, aquaculture processing facilities, floating houses and dive platforms. Beyond the standard P-series, custom-sized and custom-equipped configurations are produced; ASAKUA also delivers supply and on-site installation for floating structure projects outside aquaculture.

TECHNICAL

Optimized structural behavior.

The Work Barge series consists of hot-dip galvanised steel floaters, FRP grating deck and polyethylene pipe superstructure. Five standard models: P1260L (12 × 6 m, 6 t deadweight), P1680L (16 × 8 m, 12 t), P1260H (12 × 6 m, 16 t), P1680H (16 × 8 m, 24 t) and P1680S (16 × 8 m, 30 t). Deck cargo capacity ranges from 1 t/m² to 4 t/m² across the range; usable deck area is 60 m² (P1260) or 112 m² (P1680).

Lifting equipment is added per project: hydraulic crane capacity is 8 MT on P1260H, 16 MT on P1680H, 20 MT on P1680S; manual crane is optional from 3 T to 12 T across all models. Draft is 0.2–0.4 m, freeboard 0.7–1.2 m — suitable for shallow coastal operations. Polyurea coating on the steel structure is optional for additional corrosion protection in marine conditions.

The lightweight modular platform variant — for sheltered waters and smaller cage operations — is dimensioned to site data with custom sizing, load and connection details. All platforms are delivered turnkey: engineering, steel fabrication, pre-assembly, transport and on-site installation. The standard Work Barge configuration is documented in the linked brochure; bespoke project dimensions are sized by our engineering team using site data and operational requirements.
