ABSTRACT

The demand for large Anchor Handling, Towing and Supply vessels (AHTS) did increase significantly in the last years. Large in this respect does not only consider the pure size of the vessel but refers to a bollard pull of more than 300 tons and in coincidence with this winches with line pulls of up to 500 tons and huge rope and wire capacities.
