THE NEXT GENERATION OFFSHORE HEAVY LIFT SOLUTION
ABOUT ODS
ODS, formed in 2017, will provide the offshore industry with a multipurpose, economical, safe and environmentally friendly Heavy Lift solution to support single topside lifts, jackets, subsea infrastructure and renewable energy lift requirements.
The vessel, Moonraker 1, which has been designed in-house by ODS, and will use ground-breaking disruptive technology to support offshore oil and gas engineering, procurement, removal and decommissioning requirements.
Through a 6 column stabilised, self-propelled semi-submersible design, Moonraker 1 will facilitate improved Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs), reducing the cost and time to decommission hydrocarbon producing facilities, whilst ensuring the highest safety standards. It will also offer an extended window of operability of over 300 days per year, providing significant time and cost savings to the industry over any existing technology.
The vessel will offer the industry a much needed solution to work in some of the world’s harshest environmental conditions, such as the UK North Sea and Norwegian Continental Shelf.

-
30,000 MT single topsides lift (12 x 2,500MT heave compensated lifting beams)
-
12,000 MT heave compensated jacket and subsea infrastructure lift
-
3,500m2 deckspace laydown area
