TTS Ships Equipment has seen a huge rise in its offshore sales in recent years, receiving sizeable orders from shipyards across the globe.
“The daily charter rates for offshore vessels have been consistently high,” says Jan-Magnar Grøtte, managing director, TTS Ships Equipment AS. “Vessels are becoming more complex than ever before, and there’s been a strong demand for multipurpose ships with a wide range of specialist equipment.”
The company’s recent contract wins include an order from Sinopacific Zhejiang shipyard in China for delivery of materials to two ships. TTS will be supplying the ROV hangar side doors and roller gate doors, working alongside the owner Neptune Offshore.
“We will be supplying a hydraulically operated side-hinged foldable steel door to the lower part, and an electrically-driven roller gate door to the upper part of the ROV hangar side opening,” says Grøtte. “These are controlled by a locally mounted panel with pushbuttons. We will also be supplying a roller gate door to the aft of the ROV hangar. The roller gate doors are weathertight steel lamella profile doors, driven by an electric motor.”
The company has also recently won a contract for top-hinged side doors for a seismic vessel being built at Ulstein Shipyard, Norway. “These are significant contracts, highlighting our success across the industry,” says Grøtte. “Our success is a result of our proven quality products developed in close cooperation with the shipyards, designers, owners and the operators, teamed with our fast turnaround and competitive pricing.”
