The APOLLO 2 – STS Personnel Transfer Basket, approved by the Brazilian Directorate of Ports and Coasts (DPC) and in compliance with Norman 321, Annex 4-B, was developed for ship-to-ship transfer operations, ensuring maximum safety and comfort for passengers during transfers between vessels. Designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the maritime environment, this basket is a robust and reliable solution for safe and efficient transfers.
With the capacity to transport up to two passengers with an average weight of 90 kg and hand luggage of up to 10 kg, the APOLLO 2 – STS is built with a reinforced structure that protects against vertical and horizontal impacts up to 3.25 m/s, with a safety factor greater than 10.
The basket is equipped with two hoisting cables: a primary 3.0-meter cable and an emergency 3.1-meter cable, ensuring continuous safety in case of failure. Additionally, the APOLLO 2 – STS is designed to float stably in the event of a fall into the sea, keeping passengers in a vertical position. Even in a capsizing situation, the basket provides a safe escape route above sea level, in any sea condition.
The basket’s access are wide and easy to use, allowing passengers to board and disembark safely. During transportation, passengers remain standing, with their hand luggage stored securely at their side.
The APOLLO 2 – STS Personnel Transfer Basket is the ideal choice for ensuring safety and efficiency in ship-to-ship operations, meeting the highest safety standards in the maritime industry.
Alternative Lease Model:
Flexprin has a significant stock of transfer baskets for specific ship-to-ship operations, as required by the latest standards applicable to this segment and approved by the DPC.
The lease model for this equipment eliminates CAPEX and reduces in half the logistical processes involved in annual certification by simply exchanging expired baskets for new ones, certified for another year. Additionally, the model only generates a single annual payment process and the agreement signed with customers can have a flexible term, with a fixed price, further simplifying internal and tax controls.
In addition to being compulsory, annual servicing will also increase the lifespan of your equipment and thus your safety. Baskets are kept in aggressive environments and exposed to humidity, heat, fresh water, salt water, drastic temperature changes, and improper handling, which can accelerate the natural ageing process of the equipment and its components. There is no way of determining whether the equipment will maintain its good operating condition without regular servicing at the manufacturer or approved service station.
