DONUT MARINE - Personal Descent Control Device for escape from FPSOs, FSUs and Vessels
 |
| Donut Marine can be used with any combination of survival equipment |
The use of Floating Production and Offloading Systems is now a fundamental part of the offshore industry.
The DONUT Marine Personal Escape Descent device is the ultimate safety system for an evacuee. It offers the means of escape from very high structures in hostile environments and ever-changing conditions. This compact and unrestricting escape device is simple and sure.
With over 12,000 units sold and in service, the DONUT Personal Escape Device is
established worldwide as the
Industry Standard.
FPSOs, FSUs and Vessels have special needs, including the requirements to achieve effective evacuation escape and rescue in a variety of scenarios. In particular, the following issues must be addressed:
- LISTING - causing conventionally mounted lifeboats to become
inoperative
- SMOKE - affecting helicopter
operations
- ENTRAPMENT - at the bow
end for entry into liferafts and
the bridge wings or in the event
of the main means of escape being
rendered inoperative.
In the case of liferaft entry, it is
virtually impossible for an evacuee
to gain entry into a liferaft
without the use of DONUT due
to the opposition of wind and
sea conditions.
DONUT Marine is ISO 9001 approved. It has ‘approval for use’ certification from all major international regulatory authorities, providing the operator with complete confidence.
The DONUT Safety Device is available from DONUT or approved distributors.
