Ampelmann switch programs will probably be totally built-in into newbuild CSOVs
The Construction Service Operation Vessels (CSOVs) simply ordered at Ulstein Verft by Stig Remøy’s Olympic group will function Ampelmann’s W-type entry programs. The electrical movement compensated programs will probably be completely built-in into the vessels.
The W-type is one among Ampelmann’s newest electrical movement compensated programs. The system is peak adjustable and may face up to sea states as much as 3.5 meter Hs. Tailor-made to particular person vessels, the modular system is effectively fitted to development, commissioning and upkeep work on wind farms. Its variable peak and automatic touchdown software program are designed to allow a protected and fast turnover of personnel and cargo throughout prolonged campaigns that require environment friendly servicing of a number of generators.
Outfitted with a elevate and a gangway that doubles up as a crane, the Type W can safely switch each personnel and cargo as much as 2,000 kg and remote-controlled trolleys can transport 400 kg of kit throughout the gangway.
“We are pleased to continue our long-standing working relationship with Ampelmann. Olympic has been working more or less continuously on offshore renewables projects for the last ten years, and these new investments shows our intent to continue to serve the renewable energy markets and clients also in the coming decades. Ampelmann W-type gangway permanently integrated onboard Ulstein SX222 CSOVs will optimize our workability in a safe and efficient manner,” says Frode Andreassen, vp industrial renewables at Olympic.
“We would like to extend our gratitude to Ulstein and Olympic for putting their trust in our systems and services,” says Caspar Blum, Ampelmann’s space supervisor for enterprise growth for Europe and Africa. “We share a deep commitment to bringing sustainable, safe and energy efficient access solutions to the renewable energy market and we hope this will lead to a thriving and prosperous partnership.”
“Alongside the system,” Blum provides, “we will continue to offer our service package to Olympic. In the past fifteen years we have developed a robust service model to support our rental fleet. As we are transitioning into a selling company, we realize our services are as important as our technology. This means we will continue to offer workability forecasts, operator training, redundancy packages and provide logistical assistance to clients who buy our systems. Additionally, the 24/7 support offered by the company’s Operation Control Center will ensure that downtimes are kept to a bare minimum, meaning further increases in operational efficiency.”
