Site workers at Laing Offshore, Graythorp, Hartlepool in the 1970s. In 1978 two American Hoist Revolver 509 cranes were sold and removed from the site by ship/barge; one went to Rotterdam to be installed on on a floating crane barge which then went to the Gulf of Mexico. The steel structures which the cranes sat on remained at the Laing site.
