A-type Gangway
The Multi-Purpose Vessel Boa Deep C. of BMSI is being fitted with an Ampelmann A-type gangway. The A-type is mobilised on a 23 metre pedestal so it is capable of landing at the platform at a height of 32 metres. The A-type provides a stable transfer platform in conditions up to 2.5 metres significant wave height thereby ensuring safe, efficient and reliable transfer of personnel.
This May, Ampelmann opened an office in Houston, Texas, to strengthen its presence in the Americas and to confirm the company’s commitment to the global oil and gas industry.
