Active heave compensation uses proven technologies and components for safe positioning during complex offshore activities.
Safely moving heavy loads from ship to sea floor is a basic requirement in the offshore industry. Undersea work of this type is common in the oil and gas industry. It typically includes tasks such as pipeline construction and repair, placement of oil and gas well heads, installing subassemblies on drilling rigs, as well as maintenance and repair activities. Similar operations entail building and maintaining offshore wind turbines, underwater salvage, geotechnical surveys, and dredging.
