recently introduced Safeway Gan- net 3D motion-compensated offshore access system with its unique features such as ‘zero impact bumpering’ or ‘hover-mode’ and roll compensation capability. A big advantage of this cost-saving engineering solu- tion is that the SOV can stay in a

Since we built our ?rst pumps in 1938, Carver Pump has become recognized as one of wind farm, even in the roughest the leading centrifugal pump companies, building to the most demanding engineering sea conditions. And thanks to the distinctive Safeway Gannet 3D speci?cations and military standards in the world. We were one of the ?rst American motion compensated gangway, pump companies to attain ISO 9001 certi?cation – the most recognized standard the ? oating duo is able to offer a for quality in the world. We are dedicated to building American-made pumps with degree of safety, ? exibility and military-grade precision to accommodate highly developed speci?cations.
