Wind farm offshore support vessel SOV T38-14

To meet the needs of tomorrow’s offshore wind industry, we have designed the next generation of service operation vessels with an advanced level of integration and autonomy. Our SOVs allow you to achieve the highest levels of safety, reliability and workability from a low-cost base and true zero-emission operations. The Royal IHC SOVs are characterised by the following distinctive features: fully integrated holistic workability analysis crew and passenger safety and comfort autonomous operation true zero emission operations. Fully integrated The vessels feature a fully integrated service package with provisions for a motion compensated gangway, a motion compensated crane and a daughter craft with step-less boat landing to allow for effective operations. Moreover, ample space is available for warehousing, workshops, office spaces with view on operations and relaxation areas. Holistic workability analysis Royal IHC is uniquely positioned to provide a holistic analysis of the workability of a vessel. The vessel design and mission equipment such as the dynamic positioning system and motion compensated gangway are integrated in the design of the vessel. By combining vessel motions, DP system behavior, gangway parameters and weather conditions in our proprietary analysis tools in the design phase, Royal IHC guarantees that the vessel’s workability will meet your mission requirements. Focus points in development Key focus points in the development of this vessel are: crew and passenger safety; a comfortable living and working environment; and vessel efficiency in terms of workflow and propulsion systems, and a high level of autonomy.
