Offshore crew changes can be dangerous, especially in rough seas. To address this, KENC has created an Automatic Boat Landing System. This innovative system makes crew transfers safer, faster, and more efficient. Unlike traditional methods, it doesn’t require cranes, offering a more practical solution for modern offshore vessels.
Crew changes are notoriously difficult, especially in rough seas. Traditional methods often rely on cranes to lift personnel between vessels, increasing complexity and danger. Offshore operators need safer, more efficient solutions.
KENC’s Automatic Boat Landing System provides a reliable, robust, and secure solution. Unlike traditional methods, it doesn’t require heavy equipment like cranes. This compact, fully automatic system reduces manual handling and minimizes risks.
KENC’s Boat Landing System offers two distinct configurations to suit various vessel types and operational needs.
Ideal for larger vessels with ample deck space, the H-Type system hangs horizontally. This compact design allows for easy storage and deployment, without interfering with other deck operations. Therefore, it’s an ideal choice for long vessels.
For vessels with limited deck space, the V-Type system is a more suitable option. Its vertical position minimizes its footprint, while still offering the same reliability and automation features as the H-Type. Consequently, it’s a versatile choice for different vessel setups.
KENC, with over 20 years of offshore engineering expertise, offers custom-engineered solutions that prioritize safety, efficiency, and uptime. Our Boat Landing System is specifically designed to minimize risks and optimize operational efficiency, providing a simple yet effective solution for your crew change needs.

What our
clients say
“The basic design of the boat landing is very satisfactory. The biggest advantage is that we do not need the ship’s crane to put the boat landing in position. This results in more uptime and less risk. Lowering can already be done during operation, only a heading change is needed to give the best lee. Only during the crew transfer itself operations will be ceased. Total down time is about 20 to 30 minutes.”
