Telescopic Access Bridges

De Challenge

Moving people and cargo safely at sea, under extreme conditions in the offshore industry.

De Solution

SMST developed a range of motion compensated gangways, the SMST Telescopic Access Bridges (TAB), for the safe transfer of personnel and cargo to and from offshore structures. The gangways, that are adjustable for various heights, vary in length from 4 up to 58m. The gangways can be equipped with a lifting winch on the bridge tip for cargo handling. Since jobs and vessels vary all the time, SMST offers flexibility by supplying gangways with a modular setup, suitable for all possible operational conditions. The bridges are available for purchase and rent.

De Businesscase

Maximum operational flexibility, continuous safe and efficient access of people and cargo, optimal cost of ownership, ongoing product development by worldwide connectivity.
