Incidents include;
Man overboard during motion compensated gangway transfer
What happened?
An offshore worker fell overboard from a height of one metre while transferring from a platform to a vessel (non-DP) via a motion compensated gangway. The incident occurred as the vessel drifted off from the platform, resulting in the gangway disconnecting from the platform and creating a gap between the gangway and the platform, through which the worker fell overboard.
