Offshore wind farm vessels operate under extreme conditions: changing loads, crane operations, personnel transfers, and challenging sea conditions place the highest demands on the stability of the vessel. An anti-heeling system based on the zero-flow principle offers a particularly efficient and reliable solution for this.
Unlike conventional systems, which continuously pump water between ballast tanks, the zero-flow system operates without a permanent water flow. Heeling is compensated for by intelligent ballast configuration and immediate control. The ship remains stable – without delay and without energy-intensive pumping operations.
The result is fast and precise stabilization, even during dynamic offshore operations such as crane work, gangway operation, or load changes during service work on wind turbines. At the same time, the system significantly reduces energy consumption, supporting modern, hybrid, and low-emission ship concepts.
By eliminating the need for continuously operating pumps, maintenance and wear are also reduced, which increases system availability and minimizes downtime. For shipowners and operators, this means lower operating costs and greater operational reliability.
Last but not least, the Zero-Flow Anti-Heeling System increases safety for crew and equipment: calmer decks, more precise workflows, and a stable platform for critical offshore operations.
