Greenland Heavylift vessels enhance safety with ABB’s OCTOPUS platform

Greenland Heavylift Holdings is to integrate ABB’s OCTOPUS marine software platform to improve the safety and efficiency of four of its semi-submersible heavy lift vessels.

  • OCTOPUS will take into account weather, loading data and hydrodynamic properties of the vessel to generate a tailored route for each voyage that will transport large cargoes such as oil rigs.
  • Polar chart will map the safest and most efficient voyage route, allowing officers to continuously update speed and course.
  • Sensors will also provide real-time roll and motion data to enhance onboard safety. Viewings from the bridge and ashore are possible.
