boom cranes (PKM and DKF), substations are equipped with a versatile and low maintenance lifting device for safe cargo handling. PALFINGER MARINE has developed a new modular, 3D-compensation unit, for use on wind farm service operation vessels (SOVs) for increased vessel operability. Hence enabling smaller and more cost-effective vessels to be used in harsher weather conditions. The 3D-compensation module is designed for mounting on PALFINGER MARINE offshore cranes – knuckle boom cranes, telescopic cranes or stiff boom cranes – on board vessels to transfer goods to and from windmills or other fixed installations. The 3D-compensation module can be dismounted and parked in a separate cradle, allowing the crane to be used as a standard offshore crane.
