Project Description
The Arctic Pad® was installed as a retrofit package which included use for all escape route stairways, muster stations, life raft davits, doorway entrances and critical access areas. The Arctic Pad® was also extensively installed on the forecastle deck at the clients request to improve operational safety and crew access. A new control and monitoring system was designed and included in the scope of supply.
As with many vessels the existing decks was uneven, un-level and had multiple surfaces at differing heights. This was easily overcome due to the flexibility of the Arctic Pad®. Thus eliminating the need for modifications, costly repairs, ultimately removing trip hazards by easily traversing over deck transitions. During installation the vessel was undergoing a re-certification and relocated to 4 different shipyards during the process. As such four different shipyards were easily trained by AMS® on the mechanical installation with minimal disruption to other ongoing mobilization activities.
