Seaonics - research vessel Kronprins Haakon
The vessel, named after the Norwegian Crown Prince
Haakon, is a polar ice-breaking vessel outfitted for scientific
research and represents a new era within Norwegian
polar research.
Kronprins Haakon is a state-of-the-art research
vessel. SEAONICS delivery comprises a complete
package of winches, deck cranes, and launch and recovery
systems including two A-frames and two overhead
cranes. To ensure safe and secure operations
for people and equipment a complete 3D modelling of
main hangar and stern deck was developed in close
cooperation with designer and end-user.
Norwegian Polar Institute chose electric winches to
minimise energy consumption, in addition to providing
good working conditions with low noise levels.
