R. STAHL wins major order with innovative lighting system for offshore
helidecks
R. STAHL AG launches a newly developed lighting system for helidecks on the
market via its Norwegian subsidiary. For Tranberg AS, this is the largest
order in the more than 114 years of its company history.
Waldenburg, 24 August 2015. As part of its new product initiative, R.
STAHL's Norwegian subsidiary Tranberg AS has rolled out its innovative
Circle & H Helideck Lighting Solution. When the Civil Aviation Authority
(CAA) released its latest standard (CAP 437) for lighting on offshore
helicopter landing areas in 2013, R. STAHL and its development partners
began to work on implementing the new regulations and now offers its
customers an innovative lighting solution.
Convinced by the quality of the system, a major southern UKCS oil and gas
operator placed an initial order for 10 helideck lighting systems with
further 10 options with R. STAHL. The operator manages a total of 46
platforms in the UK sector of the North Sea and will install the first 10
out of 20 platforms of this total with the new R. STAHL Circle and H
lighting system. The quick and simple installation methods covering all
helideck lighting materials as well as low maintenance and inspection costs
in particular provide a competitive edge. With the innovative lighting
system, R. STAHL once again does justice to its excellent reputation as
technological leader.
Besides lighting of the touchdown marking circle and the helideck
identification "H" marking, the comprehensive solution also includes the
new dual colour perimeter lights. They mark the touchdown platform and give
additional signals to the pilot. If gas escapes, the operator can mark the
touchdown platform in red light and thus warn the pilot and close the
helideck. The R. STAHL offer is completed by the new LED floodlights with
numerous benefits, such as the automatic dipping of floodlights during
landing to prevent dazzle.
The helideck operators affected by CAP 437 have until 2018 to implement the
new regulations - in the UK sector, this would be around 300 permanently
installed platforms. In addition, other countries generally follow the CAA
standards. R. STAHL sees tremendous potential for retrofitting in this
field over the next three years.
