Offshore & Marine - Heave Compensation

Fast reacting and stable, even when waves are considerably high; Active Heave Compensation Systems (AHC) significantly enlarge your window of operation and work safely under all conditions.

Active Heave Compensation systems utilise actively controlled devices, which can operate in various modes depending on the required characteristics. They maintain a constant vertical position (AHC-mode) of a free hanging load or a constant tension (CT-mode) to a supported or fixed load.

Unloading material safely onto the seabed is a basic requirement in the offshore industry. Passive Heave Compensation Systems (PHC) from Van Halteren Technologies improve your economic capabilities for loading and unloading with minimal costs.

Unloading material safely onto the seabed is a basic requirement in the offshore industry. Even small waves make it difficult, and, as soon as they are higher than a few feet, it’s almost impossible to work safely.
