ACE Winches to Unveil New Gear at Offshore Energy Exhibition and Conference

UK-based deck machinery specialist ACE Winches will officially add a new 500te Linear Winch to its range of specialised deck equipment at this year’s Offshore Energy Exhibition and Conference (OEEC), held from 25 to 26 October in Amsterdam RAI.

The new 500te Linear Winch has been designed, engineered and manufactured at ACE Winches facilities in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

The new product is now in its final stages of FAT testing, with mobilisation scheduled for mid-December 2016 for its first contract. The contract will conclude in early spring 2017 when the unit will be available for hire, the company said.

ACE Winches will also use OEEC to showcase its range of products and services supplied to European clients operating within marine, renewables and oil & gas sectors.

In recent months ACE Winches has delivered equipment and services for a number of key projects for European based companies, worth over GBP 1.4 million.

“We have invested substantially in both our products and services. In challenging times this is extremely important and these projects are testament to the hard work put in from the team,” Alfie Cheyne, CEO, ACE Winches said.

“For a high quality and cost effective solution for your offshore projects, the team will be on the hand throughout Offshore Energy to meet with companies that have a requirement for engineered deck machinery solutions encompassing electrical and electronic control systems.”

ACE Winches will be exhibiting on stand 5.106 at OEEC.
