Profile

Protea delivers material handling equipment and systems for offshore, marine and onshore markets. Protea also provides inspections, expediting, production supervision and engineering services. We serve as one of Aker Solutions' HUB.
CRANE DELIVERY
Protea delivers many types of cranes for offshore installations. Offshore pedestal cranes are the most important means of transport of materials between any offshore installation and a supply vessel. We also deliver overhead travelling cranes, gantry cranes, deck cranes, floating cranes, wind farm cranes, shearleg cranes, pipe handling cranes, heavy lift cranes, christmas (X-mas) tree cranes and derricks for any offshore applications.
Our offshore pedestal cranes can be diesel hydraulic cranes or electro hydraulic cranes. They can be delivered with box boom, lattice boom, telescopic boom or knuckle boom. BOP cranes are used for transport of Blow-out Preventers and Christmas tree cranes are used for transport of X-trees.
DELIVERY OF WINCHES
A range of specially designed winches are delivered by Protea. Among them there are anchor handling winches, riser pulling winches, abandon and recovery winches, constant tension winches, launching winches, man riding winches, deck winches, chain winches, tugger winches and traction winches.
These can be delivered with spooling device or level winder. Winches are delivered fully tested and often with hydraulic power pack, Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) or electric power unit.
The company has recently acquired several orders for the delivery of series of winches for heavy lift floating offshore cranes. The series includes boom hoist winches, main hoist winches, auxiliary hoist winches, whip hoist winches and tugger winches. The winches are either of hydraulic or electric type. The winches' drives are of modularised type.
Protea has also won several orders for anchor/mooring winches for PDVSA in Venezuela. This should be a new and opening market for Protea. The winches are of double-drum type with spooling devices, and are electrically driven with advanced control and monitoring systems. They are of different sizes and will be used on several oil barges.
