General – Newbuilding
SEAONICS has signed a record-breaking contract covering the delivery of five ECMC Gangways and five ECMC 3D Cranes for an international customer to a series of walk-to-work offshore newbuilds under construction at global shipbuilder VARD’s yard in Vietnam.
The equipment will enable the vessels to provide comprehensive maintenance, supply and operational services to offshore oil-and-gas installations.
The ECMC systems ensure smooth and precise movements even in challenging sea conditions by compensating for the vessel movement.
The simplified design promotes operational safety and efficiency, reducing the time and effort required for cargo handling and personnel transfer.
The gangways will secure safe transfer of cargo and personnel from the vessel to the offshore installations, and the cranes have a motion compensated lifting capacity of 15T 3D lift and 15T motion compensated Subsea lift. Both systems have an outreach of 30 meters.
The SEAONICS ECMC systems utilises directly the benefits of the DC grid solution and battery solution on the vessel.
With this latest contract, the total number of ECMC Gangways and ECMC Cranes Seaonics has sold is 16 and 18 respectively. Both introduced to the market in 2023.
