Centus Marine has launched its second hybrid propulsion fast crew boat, Centus Alesha, from Strategic Marine in Singapore. This vessel aims to enhance sustainability in offshore operations by reducing fuel consumption and emissions during crew transfers to installations off Sarawak, Malaysia, marking a significant advancement in decarbonization efforts.
Dynamic positioning (DP) systems are essential for vessel safety in industries like offshore supply and drilling. Failure can result in accidents, pollution, and fires. Redundancy is crucial, with tailored solutions for each vessel. Wärtsilä focuses on countering forces with thrusters, while ABB enhances energy efficiency. Kongsberg develops solutions for offshore wind operations, like the Tow Assist system.
Miros, a global ocean insights specialist, has launched the Oil Spill Detection (OSD) Monitoring app in Miros Cloud. This new solution offers real-time visibility, centralized collaboration, and full accountability for offshore operators. Users can monitor, track, and respond to oil spills faster, minimizing environmental impact and reducing operational costs.
AIRCAT Vessels, in partnership with ESNA, has delivered the first batch of three AIRCAT 35 Crewliners for the oil and gas industry. These vessels, utilizing SES technology, can reach speeds over 50 knots in challenging conditions. With advanced passenger comfort features, they are now part of the ENERGY CRAFT fleet in Angola.
Kongsberg Maritime has secured a contract with CMM to provide ship design and technology for six hybrid PSVs with oil spill recovery capacity. These vessels will support Petrobras’ offshore operations, featuring advanced design and hybrid propulsion systems for improved fuel efficiency. The project aims to advance sustainable offshore operations and reduce carbon emissions.
