Our cargo and passenger access solutions consist of a wide range of products for different ship types.

RORO

In open position when the ship is in harbor, the stern ramp is the basic feature to allow loading and unloading of cargo. In addition to all heavy loads the ramp is exposed to, it must be built to handle different ship motions such as heel and trim. Quay heights and tidal differences are other variables which the stern ramp must be built to handle.

In closed/stowed position when the ship is sailing, the stern ramp acts as a watertight door forming a barrier between the outside and the inside of the ship.

NSH Ships Equipment delivers a wide range of different stern ramp/doors tailor made to suit with the ship and its operation conditions.

There can be several of shell openings in a ship, serving different purposes but where each opening might pose a threat to the water integrity.

OFFSHORE & RESEARCH

There can be several of shell openings in a ship, serving different purposes. Openings in the shell within the area of the hangar are often used for Launch and Recovery of Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV’s) and other tools/instruments.

To assure good working conditions inside the hangar both during sea voyage and during ROV operation, different kind of ROV Hangar Door concepts can be utilized.

NSH Ships Equipment delivers a wide range of different ROV Hangar Doors / Roller gates tailor made to suit with the ship and its operation conditions.

Launch and recovery of Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV’s) and other tools/instruments is a critical operation. Especially in an offshore environment where elements such as wind, waves and ice might pose an additional threat to the equipment and crew.

A moon pool arrangement is therefore one type of solution giving access to the water below through a hatch cover. It can be located inside a protected hangar, allowing technicians or researchers to lower the equipment into the sea without having to be exposed for elements as on an open deck. The equipment can also be launched and recovered in a more safe way where guiding’s can be arranged inside the moon pool hatch assuring a controlled operation.

A moon pool may also allow divers to enter or leave the sea in a more protected environment.

PORT EQUIPMENT

To optimize turn-around time in port, an automatic mooring system can be used. It will secure the vessel in the berth in a fast and precise way by mechanically connect the ship to the port. An Auto Mooring system will also create a safer working environment in the port by reducing the amount of manual work that needs to be carried out close to water.

Each Auto Mooring system is tailor made to suit the local environmental conditions in the port and the requirement for the ships it will serve. It can be designed to allow a wide range of operation methods, all the way from fully automatic, operated by pushing a button onboard the ship, to be operated manually by push buttons on operation panel on shore.

To allow for a smooth vehicle transit between shore and ship, a Linkspan system can used. There are several different types of Linkspan but in common for all types are that they are hinged to the quay at the shore end and adjustable to fit different water levels and vessel drafts at the seaward end.

 Linkspans are divided into four main categories:

  • Mechanically Supported Linkspans
  • Integral Tank Linkspan
  • Floating Linkspan
  • Submerged Linkspan

Type of Linkspan that is most suitable for a certain port are determined by several different factors, such as vessel type, port infrastructure, environmental conditions and similar.
