AHTS vessel

Reduced fuel use and better power for deepwater operations

With hundreds of anchor handling vessels featuring our solutions, we are a trusted partner in anchor handling operations and a leader in fuel-saving technology. Our latest AHTS design has a patented cross-tensioning system that dramatically reduce fuel consumption. All our designs feature hull and engine/propulsion systems that create maximum bollard pull.

Powering performance with proven advantages:

  • A new AHTS design featuring a patented cross-tensioning system that saves fuel consumption
  • Future proof designs that use or adapt to hybrid or alternative fuels 
  • Fuel-saving solutions to extend the range and capacity of AHTS vessels
  • DP control systems with functionality developed for the offshore energy industry
  • Engineering for the offshore wind farm industry, including floating wind 

Lifecycle support

  • Our anchor handler designs are characterised by a hull and an engine/propulsion system configuration that secure maximized bollard pull as well as fuel efficient operations. Kongsberg Maritime’s iconic UT vessels are the benchmark design for the offshore industry, and our latest designs (the UT 7800 range) combine decades of experience and our latest innovative technologies to offer customers next-generation ships that are equipped for the future, including options for alternative fuels and hybrid propulsion.

  • 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.
