OE13: MDL launches VLS

Published

Maritime Developments (MDL) has launched a new portable vertical lay system (VLS) for the deployment and retrieval for subsea umbilicals, risers and flowlines.

The system is road transportable; can be assembled on the quayside; can be used with any vessel of opportunity and requires only two lifts onto the vessel, one for the VLS, and the other for the tensioner.

The integrated VLS includes a work platform/moon pool doors; hang-off clamp; a control cabin; tensioner; top chute and HPU (hydraulic power unit)/spares container.

MDL specializes in deck equipment to support subsea umbilicals, risers and flowlines operations. It has offices in Aberdeen and a workshop, yard and offices in Peterhead.
