Purus, a provider of maritime services for the gas transport and offshore wind industries, has partnered with ScanReach to implement its wireless maritime technology systems to improve the safety of onboard personnel.
The Connect POB (Personnel OnBoard) system will be provided to four of Purus’ Commissioning Service Operation Vessels (CSOV), three new builds and one existing vessel that has already been retrofitted.
ConnectPOB uses wireless technology to provide real-time personnel on-board (POB) location monitoring and can be used to coordinate responses and evacuations in emergency situations.
The system delivers automated crew embarking / disembarking information across gangways and other access points to and from the vessel, allowing Purus to quickly locate crew, see who mustered, the locations of non-mustered personnel, as well as the number of crew onboard the vessel at any time.
“We are delighted to be working in partnership with such a forward-thinking owner as Purus across their CSOV fleet. It further demonstrates the robustness of the ScanReach wireless technology and its ability to provide enhanced onboard safety for crews,” said Dan Slater, VP Sales and Business Development for ScanReach.
