Ireland: Transas Presents New Remote Worker Tracking System

Transas Marine launches its brand-new Remote Worker Tracking System (RWTS), enabling clients to substantially increase OHS levels in construction works on offshore structures such as wind and wave generators or any other offshore platform, by offering an innovative and easy-to-use personnel tracking system.

RWTS makes it possible to monitor and control personnel movements to/from offshore facilities and detect their location. The system is easy to deploy. There is no need to install any equipment or communication links at construction site, which makes it suitable for use during any construction phase.

All information on workers’ movements is stored in a database and can be displayed on electronic chart or in a tabular form. Remote Worker Tracking System is fully integrated with Transas VTS.

 “Knowing where your workers are is particularly important at sites which are remote, hard to access, or at locations where the environment is difficult to control”, – comments Christopher Loizou, Director, Shore-Based Systems Business Division, Transas Marine. – “Transas Remote Worker Tracking System was developed in close cooperation with our offshore customers and has proven to be a highly effective and reliable tool”.
