Multifunctional vessels for construction and installation work: what specialists are in demand?
Multifunctional vessels for construction and installation work are unique offshore platforms designed to perform a wide range of tasks in the offshore construction and oil and gas industries. Such vessels often become a support during the construction of offshore facilities: drilling platforms, underwater communications, underwater passages, anchor systems and other complex structures. Their feature is high autonomy, availability of heavy equipment and the ability to carry out underwater and surface work in the most difficult weather and ice conditions.
Main tasks of MPSV vessels
Multifunctional construction vessels are used in the following areas:
support for underwater technical work (welding, cutting, installation of structures);
installation and installation of underwater pipelines;
maintenance and repair of drilling platforms;
diving and lifting heavy equipment;
transportation of goods and personnel;
work with deep-sea ROVs (remotely operated vehicles);
providing emergency rescue assistance.
Such vessels are equipped with powerful cranes with a lifting capacity of 100 to 400 tons, helipads, diving systems and dynamic positioning (DP) systems. The level of automation and technical equipment on board is one of the highest in the fleet.
