Dutch company SMST has expanded its product range with the SMST access and cargo tower, which provides step-less transfer from multiple deck levels to an offshore wind turbine’s platform.
The company said the height of the access bridge can be adjusted to the landing height of the platform, while the integrated elevator with capacity for personnel and cargo pallets stops at several levels to optimise logistic performance of the vessel.
A motion compensation system takes into account any movements of the vessel in all directions, it added.
A rotating platform allows operators to work port and starboard of the vessel, resulting in maximum utilisation and performance of the system, SMST said.
The system design has been certified according to DNVGL-ST-0358.
