Automating operations results in safer decks

摘要

When conventionally operated, the deck of an anchor handling or supply vessel can be one of the most dangerous working areas at sea. Dag Pike examines the newly developed automated systems that help to make ship operations safer.rnWires under tension, a moving deck and heavy weights that have to be secured all represent hazards to the crew who have to work on the deck. Now systems have been developed that promise a safer working area by automating many of the operations that these vessels have to undertake.
