TURBINE ACCESS SYSTEM (TAS) WINS FURTHER CARBON TRUST FUNDING
Houlder and BMT Nigel Gee today announced that their jointly developed Turbine Access System (TAS) has been awarded additional funding by the Carbon Trust under the Offshore Wind Accelerator – Access programme. The additional backing will be used to develop an integrated bow roller mechanism to further enhance its operability as a safe, reliable and predictable transfer platform. The hydraulically damped rollers will allow the vessel to push up to the boat landing on the turbine foundation structure in the conventional manner and the integral damping system will reduce and control the vessel motion thereby eliminating the sudden movements of the vessel which can occur with conventional fender systems. The development of the integrated bow roller unit will also enable shipbuilders to rapidly install TAS for both new build and retrofit Windfarm Support Vessels. The TAS will be profiled at the upcoming RenewableUK Annual Conference & Exhibition at the BMT Stand 103 and you can see it in operation in our promotional video:
