HAWK

Deck motion monitor that measures Effective Significant Wave Height in real time to set safe limits for crane transfer of cargo and crew.

Description

HAWK is a deck motion monitoring system for crane transfer of cargo and crew between platforms and supply vessels. Instead of the traditional Significant Wave Height, it uses Effective Significant Wave Height, based on real-time measurement of deck velocity, to determine safe operating limits.

Key features

  • Accurate wave input for the crane's safe load indicator
  • Displays Effective Significant Wave Height, real-time waves and a live video feed from the supply deck
  • Reflex Marine states it can reduce waiting times by 50%
  • Easy installation and low maintenance
  • In service since 2007 on the North Sea Ekofisk field, installed on 21 cranes and eight platform support vessels

Applications

Offshore crane lifting operations between installations and platform supply vessels.
