Noreq launches new compact davit

Baird Maritime

Noreq, Norway, has launched a safe new davit for life and rescue boats.

Noreq compact davits are specifically designed for the safe and efficient launch and retrieval of life-/rescue boats. It is intended for long term, reliable operation in harsh and hazardous marine and offshore environment.  

Electrical and hydraulic systems and components are totally enclosed into the davit structure and gives optimal protection against wear and tear. The davit design and construction is advantageous when it comes to maintenance and service, installation and deck preparations. This new davit concept also solves problems related to the operational effects of tropical or arctic climates.  

Launching of the life-/rescue boat is performed either from inside the boat or by remote control unit (supplied as standard). Operation of the life-/rescue boat is performed by an electric-/hydraulic driven system. The Noreq compact davit system is designed in accordance with latest IMO/SOLAS requirements, LSA Code and European Council Directive96/98 on Marine Equipment (MED).
