SeaPlanner has been announced as the system provider by DONG Energy for their Marine and Helicopter Coordination Centre (MHCC) which will be one centralised hub for their UK offshore wind farm construction and a number of regional Operations MHCCs. SeaPlanner will provide DONG Energy with personnel management, vessel and helicopter tracking and the communication dispatcher and site wide communications hardware.
SeaPlanner will be deploying several unmanned communications containers. The containers will house all equipment required, including antennae, to carry out all communications on far offshore wind farms including vessel tracking, VHF marine and airband, Tetra, helicopter tracking and crewfinder. The containers contain several self-contained safety systems including fire suppression, gas detection, climate control and more - these systems can all be monitored from the SeaPlanner software. The container will be suitable for applications on guard vessels and offshore platforms.
