ScanReach has extended the application of its wireless Connect POB (personnel on board) service to offshore accommodation vessels and barges.
ConnectPOB, now tailored to the needs of operators in this sector, is said to provide real-time insights into personnel movement, occupancy and safety compliance on accommodation vessels.
It allows users to optimize their workflows, reduce their operational risks and help strengthen crew safety, the company added.
Features include real-time location management to support emergency situations and real-time monitoring of mustering stations to improve efficiency, accuracy and safety.
ScanReach claims the service also provides greater visibility on occupancy levels, helping operators make best use of available space.
The service is designed to integrate with vessels’ existing crew management software without disrupting operations. All network components are fully EX certified.
ConnectPOB can help minimize the risk of accidents on board accommodation vessels ensuring enhanced crew welfare, and it provides instant alerts for emergency situations, according to Dan Slater, ScanReach's vice president of sales and business development.
“It will also help enhance overall performance by enabling operators to make informed decisions using data analytics and reporting tools," he added.
