Osprey in vertical parking mode
Meet Osprey. Designed for wind installation vessels
Safeway Osprey is designed to offer a state of the art offshore motion compensated gangway system for large offshore construction vessels. Self-sustained with integrated HPU and control station, the unit can be relocated at any location on any deck to meet specific project W2W requirements or deck arrangements. The Safeway Osprey also facilitates the transfer of liquid cargo. Regular project cargo is handled by the 3D tip hoist. The flexibility of 'hover-mode' allows optimum vessel headings, required for complex offshore lifting operations.
Key features Osprey
Self-containment
Powered from the vessel, Osprey operates at any given location with integrated HPU,
control cabin, staircase etc. Vertical parking ensures it doesn't require a boom rest.
34m outreach range
Allows for odd angles to landing sites and large clearance to subsea foundations preventing seabed damage caused by propeller wash.
Landing 18m above deck
Large range of landing sites can be serviced without modifications to vessel or system.
Hover mode
Great flexibility for bringing materials or liquid cargo. No forces introduced in the landing area, no gates required and landing over sea railing is no problem. Vessel is free to choose heading.
Continuous access
Accessibility continuously possible after deployment. No need to limit to batch wise transfers.
Vertical parking
Vertical parking requires less valuable deck space for W2W system (5,5m x 6m).
Operator cabin
Even in the most challenging offshore conditions, the operator cabin ensures maximum operator wellbeing.
Gangway cover
Sheltered passage to work in any weather condition and operation area, always ensuring the wellbeing of your technicians.
