Royal HaskoningDHV have a dedicated Control system team specialising in providing expert technical advice to the global maritime market.
We specialise in the feasibility, design, and specification of a wide range of control systems technologies within Ports, Shipyards and Container Terminals.
Our control engineers develop control schemes for moving structures which often have additional complexities because of their size and the personnel entrapment risks they present. Hazards from this type of machinery can result from systematic design faults and random hardware failures as well as human error arising from operational and maintenance activities.
Therefore, special design approaches are adopted such as the identification of ‘Safety Functions’ which are implemented in the control system to ensure that the machinery meets the required performance target commensurate with the level of risk.
Installations such as flood pumping stations and flood impounding gates can result in consequential injury and financial consequences if they fail to operate as desired in response to an event. Correct specification and design are essential to ensure adequate reliability and availability is provided.
Within the UK and EU there is legislation which must be complied with by all manufactures and end-users (operators). RHDHV have developed knowledge and expertise in this field and have a proven track record of assisting clients in the design, procurement, installation and operation activities of machinery. Our focus to our client is to ensure the legal and safety (risk assessment) aspects are met.
