Stone dumper vessel

Integrated functions for efficient stone dumping operations

Stone dumper vessels require accurate, reliable station-keeping and tracking, which we provide with our class-leading K-Pos DP systems, which benefit from years of offshore operational experience. Our integrated DP systems combine monitoring, command, and control of the vessel, reducing hardware and interface requirements and raising efficiency. Full bridge and automation systems can be installed, allowing for hybrid operations to further reduce fuel consumption 

Powering performance with proven advantages:

  • Industry-leading K-Pos dynamic positioning systems with dedicated functionalities
  • A wide array of highly efficient thruster and propulsion systems
  • Integrated bridge and control systems for fuel efficient operation
  • Refit management that gives old vessels new service life 

Lifecycle support

  • At Kongsberg Maritime, our aim is to ensure your vessel has maximum uptime without delays in getting diagnostic help. With our remote support tools, KONGSBERG-certified engineers virtually connect to your vessels’ installations and equipment to provide online diagnostic support, troubleshooting, and solutions to your personnel, in real time. 

  • The Thruster Support Pool (TSP) provides replacement thruster units by exchanging complete shipsets of azimuth and tunnel thrusters, or even just a single thruster, from a pool of refurbished thrusters. As part of planned maintenance, the TSP normally reduces vessel downtime from 21 days to between four and seven days.

  • We provide solutions for every stage of your vessel's service life to extend operational capability, improve performance, adopt green technologies, or prepare for new missions. Our global team is committed to you and your project until it is complete, on time and on budget.
