Offshore anchorhandlers and supply vessels are distinguished from many other types of ship because the deck crew have to carry out demanding operations at sea, often under tough weather conditions and high waves. For anchorhandlers the work involves handling heavy wires, ropes and chains under tension when laying out rig and platform moorings, work which traditionally exposed the deck crew to risk of severe injury. Platform supply vessels have to transfer containerised, liquid and powder cargoes while lying in dynamic postioning mode under the rig crane, again traditionally putting deck crew at risk.

Then attitudes in the offshore oil and gas industry to crew injury began to change, and Rolls-Royce has been at the forefront of developing equipment and systems for Safer Deck Operations. As ship designers and system integrators and not just product manufacturers we understand the whole problem.

The Rolls-Royce appoach to Safer Deck Operations is to mechanise the heavy manual work with powered handling equipment, for example manipulators on crane jibs for shackling operations on wires and chain. The systems are remote controlled by the crew

from a safe vantage point. Other items of equipment include various anchorhandling winches, shark jaws, towing pins and centring devices to ensure that mooring chains and wires are under full control at all times.

As oil exploration and production have moved into deep waters, often far offshore, the weight of rig anchors and associated moorings has increased, and with it the need for larger winches and handling systems, including anchor launch and recovery equipment, remote operated to minimise the risk to crew working on deck.

Platform supply vessels carrying pipes, containers or other cargo on deck present some different hazards which have been minimised with the introduction of the Safer Deck Operations equipment. The automated sea fastening system lock deck cargo in place at sea, preventing dangerous cargo shifting. Remote operated rail cranes and safer hose operating system help to keep crew away from hazardous locations.

All these systems have helped to reduce deck crew injuries, cutting incidences by more than 50 per cent in ten years.

Focus on improved safety offshore has led to a dramatic reduction in injuriesto crew working on deck, as these 2104 figures from the Norwegian Maritime Directorate show. Our Safer Deck Operations system and equipment make a major contribution to a safer working environment.

Rolls-Royce is the leader in developing the very large anchor handling/towing winches that are the heart of an AHTS. They are made with capacities of more than 600 tonnes pull, and with drums capable of spooling wire rope for the deepest water moorings.

These winches and the control winch system are suitable for all sizes of anchor handlers, and the winches are tailored to the specific vessel and its operations.

Our experience shows that the key feature of an AHT winch is rapid dynamic response. Our low pressure hydraulic driven winches are established favourites because of their excellent dynamic performance. The newly developed E26 proportional pressure compensated valve offers even more precise and responsive load independent speed control, more accurate tension control and load sensing and less complex piping installation for the shipyard. A hybrid solution has also been developed where the normal loads are covered by AC asynchronous electric motors but with a hydraulic supplement providing quick response to load peaks. We are also introducing permanent magnet motors which have similar dynamic

capabilities and controllability as for the low pressure hydraulic system for customers who prefer all-electric systems.

Main winches are complemented by secondary and storage winches for synthetic fibre rope, which plays an important role in deep water mooring. Rig chain comes in a variety of link sizes, and the chain wheel on the winch must match the chain. Changing heavy cable lifters previously involved a return to shore base to use a crane, but now time is saved and unwanted transits avoided by installing a Rolls-Royce cable lifter changer. Different sized chain wheels are stored in this, and the correct one can be fitted to the winch spindle with minimum manual intervention from the crew.

The illustration indicates many items of equipment from the Safer Deck Operation portfolio. Remote controlled rail cranes can lift 8 tonnes and traverse the full length of the working deck. A second arm carries manipulator tools which tackle a variety of tasks such as shackling. Shark jaws take chains from 50 to 165mm. The anchor and recovery frame and the anchor launch and recovery system assists the launch and recovery of heavy anchors, both conventional

and torpedo type. It is designed to reduce loads generated when anchors are to be hoisted from the sea and onto the deck and lowered from the deck and into the sea, and this r esults in less damage, both to the equipment and the anchors themselves. Capture hooks, remote operated and locked either side of the stern roller, reduces the risk of getting pennant wire on board. Similar devices on each side of the hull catch and control hoses, de-risking a formerly hazardous operation.

Automated handling systems for subsea vessels

Deck machinery

Deepwater installation will continue to grow strongly and the number of wells in waters of more than 1500 metres depth will increase substantially in coming years. This growth is creating an increased demand for offshore construction and installation vessels which can operate in deep seas to install and maintain the subsea hardware. Fields in ultra-deep water (more than 1 500 metres) lie primarily off the West coast of Africa, in the Gulf of Mexico and off the coast of Brazil.

We offer multi-purpose aft-deck systems for offshore vessels operating in the subsea sector. Our solutions have been developed to enhance operational efficiency of our customers. Features such as active heave compensation, enable vessels to execute operations in harsh weather conditions, significantly increasing the operability of our systems. We play an active role in the customer’s development of their operations and we constantly seek the optimal solution for the customer’s critical operations.

Module Handling SystemRolls-Royce provides a full range of deck machinery outfits for vessels involved in inspection maintenance and repair (IMR) and construction work. A principal item of equipment is the Rolls-Royce module handling towers centred on the vessel’s moon pool. The tower structure and integrated equipment is very often

Module handling towers

customised to dedicated ships or operations, but always ensure safe and easy access to subsea equipment when on deck and horizontal guiding of the equipment during launch and recovery through the moon pool. Our skid systems, consisting of pallets and tractors, ensure that modules can be transported safely between the tower and back deck without the need for lifting. In this way, our customers can safely and efficiently carry out their operations in heavy seas where normal crane operations are not safe due to the severe vessel motions. The tower can utilise either traditional wire rope or low weight synthetic fibre rope, both with high performance and accurate heave compensation.

Cable Traction Control Unit (CTCU)The unique and patented CTCU technology allows the traditional steel wire rope to be replaced with synthetic fibre rope for lifting purposes. In addition to being field repairable, where worn parts of the rope can be replaced at sea, and offering easy logistics, lightweight synthetic fibre ropes maintain the lifting capacity virtually unaffected by water depth. The net lifting capacity of a steel wire rope is reduced significantly at great water depths due to the weight of the wire itself. Typically, the net lifting capacity is reduced by more than 50 per cent beyond 3000 metres.

Five frame sizes of CTCU are offered, spanning safe working loads from 30 to 250 tonnes giving nearly 500 tonnes lift in a two-fall system. The CTCU also come with an integrated rope

The integrated control system is the core of the system in order to achieve the system functionality required for safe and reliable handling.

management system, clearly visualising the condition of each part of the rope so inspections and maintenance of worn parts of the rope can be planned in due time and off-hire due to rope failure or premature rope replacement is avoided.

Subsea cranesOur integrated crane solutions are specially developed to meet the challenges of maritime handling operations. The cranes are fully integrated with our deck machinery handling and control systems and offer unparalleled performance as well as reliability and comfort. Through our cable traction control technology using fibre rope, our cranes can operate at virtually unlimited depths.

For general handling of offshore equipment we offer dual draglink cranes with capacities from 35 to 75 tonnes, and knuckle boom cranes in the range from 150 to 250 tonnes.

Launch and recovery system (LARS)Remotely operated vehicles play a key role in subsea operations, and our extensive portfolio focusses primarily on active heave compensated systems. The LARS is designed to handle the largest work class ROVs to depths exceeding 4000 metres, deployed over the side or through the moon pool. Our systems are designed, built and certified with high focus on gentle handling of umbilical and third party equipment. Taking into consideration the cost and time loss you experience with a damaged cable, it is important to us to provide systems which help our customers to extend umbilical life time and minimise operation downtime. Safe handling of ROV equipment on deck is ensured by the remote controlled pallet skid system that enables the full deck area to be used.

Active heave compensated subsea cranes are now available with fibre rope using the CTCU and storage drum combination.

The dual draglink crane has a geometry providing unique lifting performance. The parallelogram geometry provides a good working height and allows for short radius operations to make use of the deck area near the pedestal.

Automated handling system for seismic vessels

Deck machinery

Rolls-Royce innovative, automated handling systems for seismic vessels are the most reliable on the market. Over the years, these handling systems have continuously improved the efficiency and safety of seismic operations and have become industry standards. We have widened the operational window, reducing time lost due to rough weather conditions and boosting profitability significantly. Our equipment simply works when you need it. This is part of our focus on providing reliability for our customers.

We are involved throughout the value chain of seismic systems and are engaged early in the design of seismic handling solutions. We collaborate closely with customers to design the ship’s entire aft deck, developing comprehensive solutions to the specified needs of each vessel. Layout of winches and other equipment can be configured to suit both conventional and innovative vessel designs and any number of streamers.

Our automated handling concepts are made up of unique components, all of which are designed and delivered by Rolls-Royce as individual products or built up into complete systems.

Hydraulic or electric streamer winches provide gentle and sensitive handling of streamers, with drum capacities to cover all length requirements. These are complemented by source and deflector handling systems, fairleads and the wide tow system.

As well as streamer and source handling systems for 2D and 3D seismic survey, we provide deep water ocean bottom seismic systems for vessels performing ocean bottom seismic, both cable and node types, also CSEM solutions for electromagnetic surveys.

The result is cutting-edge solutions that strengthen the efficiency of the vessel and create a safer ship for the crew. For example, our control system, a result of decades of experience in developing such systems, allows operators to direct and synchronise all winches, streamers and auxiliary equipment by remote radio control. This user-friendly system, which features automatic spooling, reduces the need for risky manual handling on the aft deck.

We offer both simulator training for operators and combined workshop and classroom training on handling system maintenance.

FPSOs are often positioned on smaller or inaccessible fields, taking oil from wells and storing it on board until it can be offloaded into shuttle tankers for transport to shore terminals. They need to be securely moored over the well and for this Rolls-Royce provides reliable deck machinery tailored to the customer’s needs.

In a movable windlass installation each of the moorings lines has its own fairlead and stopper. A single windlass moves along the frame to tension each chain in turn, the stoppers are actuated and locked on to the chain, transferring the mooring loads to the hull. An alternative system has a triple windlass, one lifter to each mooring, with associated stoppers and fairleads.

Spar platforms have the working decks supported by a buoyant column ballasted at the bottom to keep it vertical. It is secured on location by a spread mooring system. Fairleads are mounted around the column and the chains are tensioned by chain jacks that haul the chain up and lock it at the desired position. The system is supplemented by hydraulic power packs, a control and monitoring system with load measurement, and local control consoles.

FPSOs are often positioned on smaller or inaccessible fields, taking oil from wells and storing it on board until it can be offloaded into shuttle tankers for transport to shore terminals. They need to be securely moored over the well and for this Rolls-Royce provides reliable deck machinery tailored to the customer’s needs.

In a movable windlass installation each of the moorings lines has its own fairlead and stopper. A single windlass moves along the frame to tension each chain in turn, the stoppers are actuated and locked on to the chain, transferring the mooring loads to the hull. An alternative system has a triple windlass, one lifter to each mooring, with associated stoppers and fairleads.

Spar platforms have the working decks supported by a buoyant column ballasted at the bottom to keep it vertical. It is secured on location by a spread mooring system. Fairleads are mounted around the column and the chains are tensioned by chain jacks that haul the chain up and lock it at the desired position. The system is supplemented by hydraulic power packs, a control and monitoring system with load measurement, and local control consoles.

Complete handling system solutions for oceanographic research vessels

Rolls-Royce assists the work of an oceanographic research vessel in deploying scientific equipment from the stern or side of the ship to sample the water column, investigate life in the sea or on the seabed, and examine the geology of the ocean floor. The oceanographic equipment puts a variety of demands on the handling system. Some items are towed behind the vessel, some are lowered and lifted, others are dropped freely and then hauled up.

We typically provide a suite of specialised winches and fairleads, A-frames and side gantries, and specialised tools for safely setting out and recovering items of scientific equipment. Combined with an integrated state of the art control system, this ensures efficient operations, careful handling of in-sea equipment and increases safety.

The CTCU has separate drive toeach sheave. Individual speedcontrol ensures that there is noslip on the sheaves. Modes andfeatures like active heavecompensation, constant tension,pull limit and automatic landing/lift-off are available.

In very deep water fibre rope offers more lift capacity for a given winch size.

Systems are designed to suit the particular ship, creating optimum solutions with respect to both operational needs and available space. By working together with the customers and ship designers, this ensures systems are reliable and optimised for the ship’s tasks and missions.

With the unique and patented Cable Traction Control Unit (CTCU) technology, the traditional steel wire rope can be replaced with fibre rope. The usefulness of a steel wire rope at depths greater than 4000 metres is limited, whereas the fibre rope has the same capacity at all depths. For example coring operation at depths below 4000 metres can be efficiently performed with the CTCU. The compact version of the CTCU has a pulling capacity up to 30 tonnes, and rope lengths up to 12,000 metres can be accommo dated. CTCU systems with pulling capacity up to 150 tonnes can be delivered.

We offer frames for handling hydrographic equipment over the stern with ratings up to 30 tonnes, an outreach of 4.5 metres and a clear lifting height of 8 metres.

Other equipment includes parallelogram frames for side launching and recovery, deep tow and deep water coring systems, handling equipment for piston coring, with the associated active heave compensated winch systems.

The corer crane is a part of a system for piston coring consisting of the crane, davits, A-frame and control system for synchronous operation.

Rolls-Royce deck machinery offers a complete winch, control and monitoring system for ocean-going fishing vessels. We have high focus on safety, quality and user friendliness, and offers customised winch systems according to requirement.

Customers can choose between two drive systems:• Low pressure hydraulic winch system, with electric frequency drive

on towing pumps• Electric winch system, with permanent magnet (PM) motors on

trawl winches

Both drive systems have been developed to achieve the best possible dynamic properties in challenging conditions, which is especially important for bottom trawling where the trawl can get stuck in the seabed. In bad weather the system keeps the trawl gear in the best position to fish efficiently and reduces wear and tear on equipment.

BRH64 low pressure hydraulic winches are constructed with high torque low speed motors based on 64 bar pressure. Advantages include quiet operation and low maintenance cost. BRH64 gives high dynamic shooting speed, which gives you good and safe control of the operation. The towing pumps can be powered by frequency

drive which gives variable rpm on the electric motors to suit the oil flow demands of the hydraulic motors. This gives reduced fuel consumption, less wear and tear and even quieter running. We can offer winches with pull from 3 to 74 tonnes without gear transmission, and winches from 75 to 150 tonnes with a small reduction gear ratio.

On trawl winches we are now using PM motors. With this technology we are able to remove the gear unit, achieving unique dynamic properties also in the electric trawl winches. Drives are either air cooled or water cooled, and can be integrated in the vessel’s main switchboard or SG to utilise the regenerative power.

Electric fishing winch systems are also available with standard AC motors and planetary or parallel gear transmission.

Auto trawl systemThe Synchro RTX Autotrawl system provides dynamic control of single-rig and twin-rig bottom trawling, pelagic trawling and pair trawling. The trawl system is one of the most advanced on the market, using integrated safety logic and a user-friendly interface. Essential control and monitoring functions are fully integrated, giving major benefits during commissioning and operation. This system keeps the trawls fully open when changing course during trawling. The trawl is kept moving at constant speed, even under difficult conditions. If the trawl snags, the system pays out wire automatically to prevent damage.

The Synchro RTX Autotrawl is the optimum solution for maximising catching ability for single and double trawls. The system is based on the latest technology, providing excellent stability, simple operation and great flexibility.

Key features• Free choice of master winch, starboard, port or centre• New fuel-saving EcoStep frequency-controlled towing pump• Synchronised or independent automatic operations of trawl winches• Alarm and monitoring control system• Ready for equipment health monitoring• Automatic communication with net sensors, echo sounders etc.• Graphical and dynamic presentation of the trawl gear (single, double)• Presentation of the trawl´s symmetry and geometry

Towing winch systems for tugsDeck machinery

Rolls-Royce has a portfolio of towing and escort winches developed specifically for tug operations. Hydraulic drives can be specified with power from the engine PTO or with electro-hydraulic power packs, and full electric winches have frequency control.

An Escort/Harbour tug will typically have a Rolls-Royce main winch on the foredeck and towing winch on the aft deck to enable it to carry out its main tasks efficiently: braking or steering the escorted vessel out of danger in case of technical failure, acting as an additonal rudder for the assisted vessel, or general harbour assist and deep sea towing.

Winches are designed and sized to suit the operational needs. Towing winches cover pulls from 1 to 150 tonnes, with waterfall winches extending the pull range to 300 tonnes. Our escort tug winches are designed to provide the sensitive control needed for this type of work, with pulls up to 150 tonnes and also r endering tensions in the range 1 to 200 tonnes. With AC or permanent magnet motors and frequency control they can provide rendering and recovery powers up to 1100kW.

All come with wheelhouse control and monitoring stations that display all the key data.

The quality, robust construction and flexibility of these winches have made them firm favourites with major tug operators around the world. Furthermore, the equipment from our towing winch portfolio is well suitable for icebreakers operating in arctic conditions as well as to any vessel suitable for emergency towing operation, like coastal and multi-purpose vessels.

The latest all-electric systems enable replenishment vessels to supply both fuel and solid stores quickly and safely in various sea-states.

Rolls-Royce specialises in providing underway replenishment (UNREP/RAS) systems as part of an integrated package. With many modern navies moving to the low-manned all-electric ship concept, fully automated all-electric systems are available and complement our range of conventional abeam and astern refuelling rigs.

For liquids and solids transfer, the latest dual-purpose systems can automatically transfer payloads of two tonnes or hose catenaries from a single station, and operate safely up to sea-state 6 and 7.

One person controls all functions from the custom-designed control platform on the supply ship. Once in automatic mode, the payload accelerates as it departs the supply ship and decelerates, safely stopping as it approaches the programmed position on the receiving vessel.

The control system ensures that the position of the payload is maintained regardless of the relative movement of the vessels.

For heavier loads a new heavy replenishment-at-sea system (HRAS) has been developed, capable of transferring loads of up to five tonnes. This contrasts with the light jackstay rig, which is a simple manual system for transferring loads to 250kg.

Associated equipment:• Stores replenishment rigs• Liquids replenishment rigs• Dual purpose replenishment rigs• Light jackstay rigs• Moveable highpoints• Astern refuelling rigs• Large derrick rigs

Naval handling systemsOur shipbourne winch and sensor handling systems are in use by a number of the world’s navies for sensor towing applications. They range from multi-functional towed array systems to automated electro-hydraulic winches and sonar tow body handling systems. Equipment is normally custom designed to match the requirement.

Lightweight helicopter sensor handling systems are available in a variety of configurations for mine countermeasures and sonar dipping.

Unmanned vehicle launch and recovery systems have been developed to handle virtually any unmanned vehicle. They can be automated or semi-automated to reduce the risks of manual deck operations.

Products include:• Active/passive towed sonar handling• Torpedo defence winches• Sidescan sonar winch and handling• Helicopter Long Range Active Sonar (HELRAS)• AUV LARS for smaller vessels• Moving vessel profilers• Deep-sea scientific winches

Our support teams, located worldwide, are committed to helping youmanage the vital balance between operational availability and cost. Wherever your vessel is located, Rolls-Royce support is close at hand.

Operational availability must be maintained today in the most cost-effective way. Variable market conditions and increasing competition should not undermine safe ship operations. Therefore, we work closely with our customers to support their fleets, ensuring that they are operating safely and at maximum efficiency, with the goal of virtually eliminating unscheduled downtime.

A comprehensive menu of service solutionsWe are proud of the performance of our systems, and are keen to ensure that they continue to operate at their peak throughout their lifetime. Our services now range from conventional product support, with no impact on ship availability, through to a range of equipment and system support packages with levels of vessel performance and availability agreed, normally within a long-term risk and reward-sharing partnership called MarineCare.

Single point of contactAs we have progressively increased the breadth of our product range, we have continued investing heavily in the facilities and the talent needed to support them. As multiproduct installations are becoming standard on a growing number of vessels, customers benefit from a single point of contact for support, which is usually the nearest Rolls-Royce regional centre to the vessel’s location.

Reducing through life costsReducing operating costs and maximising availability is our objective. This has led us to work closer with a number of our customers in maintenance planning and recommending spares holding. By being involved from the start we have the opportunity to focus on the activities that make a difference, acquiring and pre-positioning service or exchange parts to ensure a smoother overhaul process, saving time spent in dock.

Committed to meeting different needsAbove all, at the centre of our support philosophy, is recognition that all customers have different and often unique requirements, based on their fleet operations. Whatever the mix of requirements, Rolls-Royce is committed to meeting or exceeding them.

Product trainingAt Rolls-Royce we believe that regular training ensures that you will get the most out of a vessel’s equipment and systems, and it also ensures that they are operated and maintained efficiently and safely. Experienced and informed people are a key asset.As technology advances, so must the competence levels of operators and service personnel. We therefore offer a range of tailored training courses and programmes in state-of-the-art facilities equipped with the latest simulators and training aids.
