The marine safety equipment manufacturer says operations-critical activity can be simplified and streamlined for more than 80% of offshore sites, reducing administrative overheads and lowering compliancy risks as a result.<\/p>\n
\u201cOffshore operators are struggling with many issues right now. And, while purchasing safety equipment is a relatively minor investment, managing servicing, training, compliancy and HSE compatibility is business-critical and can take many man-hours,\u201d said Henrik Uhd Christensen, CEO, Viking. <\/p>\n
\u201cOur Offshore Safety Agreements are purpose-built to streamline these activities. But the vast majority of operators and asset owners simply aren\u2019t aware of their potential,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n
Viking\u2019s Offshore Safety Agreements are designed to take care of multi-brand safety equipment servicing with a wide range of customisable solutions. First introduced in 2013, they ensure transparent, predictable cost structures, as well as servicing procedures that won\u2019t jeopardise full POB capacity \u2013 and they provide unparalleled breadth of purchase, servicing and exchange options.<\/p>\n
The agreements cover a wide range of liferafts, vacuum-packed immersion suits, lifejackets and suit\/lifejacket combinations. Equipment with extended service intervals can be supplied depending on flag state approvals. Two different suit models are available \u2013 one in traditional neoprene, the other a multi-layer model that can be more easily donned and which provides a closer fit. Also included in the range of products covered are recently released high-visibility yellow products that have been tested in the UK.<\/p>\n
\u201cEssentially, we\u2019ve managed to build a one-stop-shop with high product availability that allows offshore operators to get the safety equipment they need and pair it up with extremely efficient servicing arrangements where they don\u2019t have to worry whether everything is compliant and compatible,\u201d concluded Mr Uhd Christensen. <\/p>\n
