Home / Safety & certification
Safety first, always

Safe. Secure.
Certified.

Safety is the product. Every vessel is classed and surveyed, every crew certified and drilled, and the boat kept ready for the weather a North Sea station brings. Here's how we hold the standard.

Classed & surveyed

Vessels built and maintained to Ice-class standards, kept in class through scheduled survey and drydock. The 2024 Delta refit is the most recent.

Properly equipped

Life-saving and fire equipment carried to class and SOLAS requirements: liferafts, immersion suits for all hands, MOB boat and FiFi monitors, with hospital-capable medical space aboard.

Drilled crews

Experienced officers and ratings, current in GMDSS, fire-fighting and sea survival, running regular onboard drills so response is routine, not improvised.

Life-saving equipment carried

Carried on every vessel.

Representative outfit, as fitted on Delta. Exact inventory per vessel is listed in each spec sheet.
