Northsea Offshore Technology manufactures lightweight aluminium structures and accommodation projects for the international marine and offshore industry.
Aluminium helidecks for offshore platforms
Northsea Offshore Technology’s patented, maintenance-free, class-certified aluminium helicopter deck is suitable for both onshore and offshore applications. The rigid yet lightweight extruded marine grade aluminium design weighs less than steel equivalents, while exceeding structural integrity standards.
The company provides a complete helideck package with accessories, including pancake, deck plank and girder beam, in addition to the entire aluminium structural support system.
Its helideck kit is designed for modular on-site assembly and is entirely bolted together so no welding or further on-site fabrication is required. Features include a carefully engineered serrated surface to ensure high-friction co-efficiency on the landing deck, which can be either painted green or left neutral.
All extruded profiles and plates feature marine grade 6xxx or 5xxx serials. The fasteners for aluminium connections are SS316 grade A40-70 or 80.
Applicable projects for helideck include:
- Rigs: semi-submersible, jack-up, fixed oil
- Vessels: offshore supply; pipe / cable lay; crane; floating, (production) storage and offloading
- Barges
- Cruise ships
- Various onshore buildings
Northsea Offshore Technology’s products feature a unique patented design that adheres to a structured quality control and assurance system.
The company’s designs have third-party certification from a wide range of international societies, including Det Norske Veritas (DNV), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Lloyds Register (LR) and Bureau Veritas (BV).
Northsea Offshore Technology has also worked with aviation authorities and regulations such as the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the International Maritime Organization (IMO) MODU Code, Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), the Norwegian Maritime Directorate (NMD), CAA-Norway and the US Coast Guard.
