To maintain our high reliability record, each transport is thoroughly engineered and computer calculated to fully comply with ISO 9001 and ISM quality and safety standards. In addition to the preparation of each transport by our engineers, all loading and discharging operations are supervised by our experienced superintendents to ensure flawless performance of all procedures described in the transport manual. Experience has learned that consulting Dockwise engineers in a project's conceptual design phase, can be a key factor in substantially saving both fabrication and transportation costs. The seakeeping characteristics of our heavy transport vessels allow for reduction of structural reinforcements for transport-only purposes. Projects in which Dockwise consulting engineers were closely involved from the early design stage, include the transportation of the BP-Harding PDQ jack-up drilling rig, the Hibernia Mega Module Move, the transportation and launching of the ONGC/SHW jacket. The essential role of engineering in our business is also illustrated by conversions of some of our vessels, by which our engineering expertise has been the key to opening up new possibilities for our fleet and services:

Since the development of the first commercial safety shield for pipe connections in 1958 by RAMCO® Manufacturing Co., Inc., there has been worldwide acceptance of safety shields on piping systems to prevent personnel injury and equipment damage due to a chemical sprayout. The effectiveness of RAMCO® Safety Shields has been demonstrated in thousands of installations in industrial manufacturing plants, government facilities and on naval and commercial ships. With the growing awareness of the importance of safety in the environment, RAMCO® Safety Shields are a natural fit in processes involving hazardous or toxic chemicals. In addition to their safety features, they permit cost reduction. Shields not only contribute to worker health by minimizing absenteeism due to accidents caused by contact with leaking chemicals but also control costs by eliminating the need for worker replacement training. With the use of safety shields to protect personnel from chemical sprayouts, stable health insurance rates can be maintained and workmen's compensation claims controlled. HOW RAMCO® SAFETY SHIELDS PROTECT... Safety shields prevent sprayouts by interposing an impregnable barrier between the chemical flowing through the piping system and the external environment. To provide this protection, RAMCO® Shields are manufactured in various materials that resist the hazardous or toxic chemicals commonly used in process industries at varying temperatures and pressures. By selecting the appropriate material for an application, virtually all situations can be safeguarded. To select the proper safety shield, it is necessary to be familiar with the physical characteristics of the special materials that are used in the manufacture of RAMCO® Safety Shields and to correlate this information with the chemical, temperature and pressure rating within the piping system. RAMCO® Safety Shields can be divided into three major groups: SPRA-GARD® Shields ECONO-GARD® Shields Metal Safety Shields Each group contains shields that are manufactured from different materials. Each type can be fabricated in any size to accommodate any piping system. While this selection is sufficient to handle most applications, special safety shields also can be customized on request. RAMCO® Safety Shields have been designed and manufactured with many essential quality characteristics. A detailed explanation of these quality features may be found in the RAMCO® SAFETY SHIELD MANUAL. A free copy is available on request. RAMCO® Safety Shields are manufactured for all pipe connections: Flanges Valves of all kinds Expansion Joints Flow Meters Hose Couplings Heat Exchangers Pressure Vessels Elbows Couplings Unions Tees Clamps Pumps Instruments Customized Connections

Welcome to RealDistance.com. Our Voyage Simulator, offers a new paradigm in voyage estimating and passage planning. Our website is specifically tailored to those involved in the operation of large merchant vessels. If you operate vessels in excess of 5,000 DWT, commonly referred to as handy-size, handy-max, panamax, and cape-size you will benefit considerably from the potential savings generated by this innovative application of vessel routing technology to the planning phase of the voyage. If you operate vessels with performance characteristics that differ significantly from that of the mono-hull, propeller driven merchant ships described above, our simulator may still be of great value. Check our Quick-Start guide to discover how our simulator can be loaded with custom vessel performance data.
