Central to its safety offering is a motion-compensated gangway system, providing stable, controlled personnel transfers between vessel and turbine, significantly reducing risk during access operations. This is complemented by a 3D motion-compensated crane, enabling precise and controlled lifting, minimising exposure to suspended loads and enhancing overall deck safety. Advanced dynamic positioning (DP) systems ensure the vessel maintains exact station-keeping, even in harsh sea states, reducing collision and drift risks.
The Meridian Class also features optimised layouts that segregate personnel and cargo operations, alongside dedicated safe working zones and integrated monitoring systems for real-time operational awareness. High-standard accommodation, emergency response systems, and safety-focused workflows further support crew wellbeing and incident prevention.
By combining proven marine technologies with a safety-first design philosophy, the Meridian Class C/SOV enables offshore wind operators to carry out critical activities with confidence, minimising risk while maximising operational continuity.
