Deck machinery for offshore exploration and production
Rolls-Royce has over many years taken a holistic view when designing and developing high-technology products for the offshore service industry.
Our insight allows us to consider all equipment that exploration and production companies may require in seeking new reserves of oil and gas – not only bespoke ship designs, together with those vessels’ propulsion systems, but also the range of sophisticated machinery used by crews on deck.
Operating in deeper waters and far-flung locations leads to ever more capable, complex vessels and rigs, which in turn require increasingly specialised deck machinery. We keep pace with these demands, supplying a huge range of positioning, mooring and automated handling systems that satisfy key roles such as well intervention and subsea operations and seismic surveys.
And mirroring the industry as a whole, crew safety is always a prime factor when we design new equipment and systems. Our major deck machinery products are:
- Cranes
- Anchor and mooring winches
- Moveable windlasses
- Chain jacks
- Fairleads and streamer lines
- Launch and recovery systems
- Work-over rigs
- Intervention systems
- Advanced tension frames
- Fibre rope deployment systems
