Following the acquisition of ODIM, we now have the capability to deliver complete automated handling systems for well intervention in addition to our current range of ship design and integrated system solutions.
Offshore well intervention from vessels instead of rigs and platforms continues to be a growing market. Rolls-Royce can supply customers with automated handling systems for well intervention and drilling systems on vessels, as well as proven ship designs with full packages of marine equipment and systems.
The pioneering vessels UT 737 Island Frontier and UT 767 CD Island Wellserver have shown that light well intervention from moderate size ships is both successful and economically attractive, while the vessels have proved to be stable and comfortable platforms. The Odim contribution comes in the form of handling equipment for performing the actual intervention work.
This includes towers with heavecompensated hoisting systems, deck skidding arrangements for moving heavy equipment safely around the deck, coiled tubing reels and CT guidance systems, riser and pipe equipment for safe handling of high pressure intervention risers, tubulars and tool joints and more.
Deep water
As offshore oil and gas exploration and production moves into deeper and more hostile waters, subsea construction is becoming the norm.
The work not only depends on capable and seakindly vessels with dynamic positioning and minimum motions as the platform for operations, typified by vessels from the UT-series, but also specialised handling systems on and under the deck.
Rolls-Royce, has for many years, been the leading supplier of offshore anchorhandling winches and has developed the Safer Deck Operations range of systems to make the job of handling chain, wire and rope, anchors and equipment on the deck of anchorhandlers safer by reducing the amount of manual intervention from the crew.
The Odim integration expands capability in several areas, in particular deep water operations using synthetic fibre rope.

Integrated crane solutions
Offshore cranes
Our offshore cranes are designed for the unique challenges of offshore operations. They provide optimal balance between lifting heavy weights and energy efficiency.
Lifting range: 400 TM – 2,000 TM
FPSO
Platforms and rigs
Subsea vessels
Cargo rail cranes
The cargo rail crane is designed to achieve safer operations and more efficient logistics on deck. Its flexible and robust construction allows the operators to work continuously through rough weather conditions, offering a large operating radius at full load capacity along the railway. Additional tugger winch and handling tools for both fibre rope and pipe handling, makes it ideal for a large variety of offshore deck operations.
Lifting range: Up to 150 TM
Multi purpose vessels
Construction vessels
Light well intervention vessels
Launch & recovery systems for ROV
Since the introduction of the new ODIM range of launch and recovery systems (LARS) for remotely operated vehicles, it has become the preferred solution in the high end of the market.
The systems are designed to handle the range from medium observation ROVs up to the largest work class ROVs over the vessel side or through a moon pool, to depths exceeding 4000 m. Even as the deployed load increases, the LARS can still operate with a speed of 144 m/minute continuously.
This is among the highest specifications in the market. The ROV winch can be delivered with secondary controlled hydraulic drives or frequency controlled electrical PM drives.
Handling the ROV between deck and through the splash zone is the most critical part of the launch and recovery operation. For improved safety for personnel and increased lifetime of the equipment, the ROV is in this operation locked in the highly flexible docking head on our side launch systems or in the latch beam on the moon pool systems.
Main features
The system is special designed for gentle handling of the umbilical, thereby ensuring maximum reliability and umbilical lifetime:
Large diameter sheaves, also for the level wind
Purpose-built Lebus shell and sheave grooves
Patented umbilical termination
In addition to highly accurate active heave compensation, our control system offers several unique features:
Smooth latching between the ROV and the handling unit
Automatic synchronization of the ROV winch and handling unit while launching and recovering the ROV
Automatic launch and recovery to a given target depth at a given target speed
The drill system is designed as modular system with components that is interchangeable with standard products. This means that the system can be used on similar vessels with none or small modifications.
The system is stand-alone and can be used for both jointed pipe and the tower structure. It can be used as framework for intervention purpose like coiled tubing and wire line. The drill system consists of the following single products:
Deck skidding system
Moon pool decks
Towers
Riser/pipe handling equipment
Coiled Tubing Reels (Drop in Drum –DID)
Coil in coil
Advanced Tension Frame (ATF)
Operators control cabin
Deck skidding system
Handling of subsea modules on open deck demands a high degree of safety for both equipment and personnel. Our deck skidding system is designed for safe storage and transportation of subsea modules between the aft deck and the handling tower. We offer both integrated and modular bolt on solutions. The robust design and flexible solutions, ensures low integration costs and extended equipment lifetime.
Features
Skidding capacity up to 70 Te
Secure handling of equipment and payload during storage and skidding
Deck integrated skidding beams or modular solution
Compatible with our base frame and hatch system
Moon pool decks
Elevated moon pool deck with two removable hatches and skiable main deck for full access to moon pool

Improved oil recovery
Improved oil recovery (IOR) drilling is an attractive and growing market, driven by the strong development of subsea oil wells combined with the introduction of new technology for such operations. We offer complete automated handling systems and stand-alone products for well service from fixed installations, floaters and vessels.
Based on established products, we have developed automated systems which can perform well workovers, intervention, plugging and removal.
Safer and more effective
The focus is on safe and cost-effective rigging and operation. The portfolio has been specially developed for offshore operations in tough weather conditions, with stringent requirements for operational safety and efficiency.
We have extensive experience as a sub-contractor for well service equipment such as coiled tubing reels, tower structures, advanced coiled tubing tension frames and jacking frames for platforms and ships.
