Heave Compensation
Heave Compensation for offshore & maritime applications
Since mankind started using sea-going vessels, the heaving of ships caused by waves has made it dangerous to handle loads safely without damages. Even today, waves are still a limiting factor. Every day, ships or offshore platforms have to wait until the sea calms to load and unload. Motion Compensation Systems minimize these delays by enlarging the window of operation.

- Stable
- Minimal costs
Features
Key features of our Heave Compensation System
Sensor technology for autonomous gangway, monopile grippers, ship-to-ship motion compensation.
In consultation with the customer we translate the application procedures into a control philosophy, which forms the basis for the development of hardware and software. The specially designed controls with dedicated software enables the operator to go through different phases of the procedures fully controlled. The integrated control system provides the operational capability to the system and continuously guards the system safety. To assure the safety and reliability of the integral system extensive redundancy features are included in the drive and the control technology.
