First-Movers Making Waves

Our first electric gangway is already proving its worth at sea. Through tailored solutions, in-house control systems and simulator training, we ensure thrilling and safe performance from day one.

"In just 12 months, we’ve sold 10 ECMC Gangways and 11–12 ECMC Cranes. Being the only supplier of fully electric gangways and crane packages for the wind industry certainly shows we’re on the right track" says Ståle Fure, VP Sales.

Next-Level Modularity

In one of our latest contracts, we’ve created smarter access solutions by integrating rail systems into existing structures instead of traditional tower solutions. That’s bullet-proof tech in action.

"Our modular approach with ECMC Gangway and ECMC Crane means we can adapt to various needs and vessel designs. Whether it’s tower-mounted, rail-integrated, or fixed installations – we deliver solutions that match our client’s specific requirements," Petter Nesset, Sales Manager, explains.

Steady Stream of Deliveries

Our fully electric systems, with redundant control systems, deliver excellent precision and quieter operations compared to hydraulic solutions. The gangway operators can enjoy full torque from zero speed, precise load handling, and a simplified design that reduces maintenance.

The systems are eco-friendly with no oil spill risk, consume less power in idle mode, and can seamlessly be integrated into the vessel power grid, even regenerating power back to the grid.

"We are very pleased with the process of integrating the equipment with the vessel. The fully electric gangway is optimized for personnel and cargo transfer for our 15-year tender with Siemens Gamesa at the Hai Long offshore wind project," said CEO for Europe Cyan Renewables, Lars Christian Zøhner.
"It is great to be able to work closely with a forward-thinking company like SEAONICS where operational feedback, design & innovation sessions allow us to continue to optimize offshore vessel performance,"
- General Manager for Purus Wind, Oliver MacManus.

Looking ahead, we will be pushing boundaries with AI integration, visual intelligence, and machine learning that enable a repeatable, safe, and efficient landing sequence. Because next-level tech needs next-level thinking.
