Gangways

Telescopic Access Bridges (TAB)

 

 

SMST provides a wide range of gangways, the so-called Telescopic Access Bridges (TAB) for safe and easy transfer of personnel and cargo to and from an offshore structure. Smart design has resulted in lightweight bridges and low power consumption.

SMST offers a range of Telescopic Access Bridges: S, M, L and XL, varying in length from 4 up to 58 meters. The bridges can be actively or passively motion compensated and are available for purchase or rent.

The gangways can be equipped for cargo handling. Safe and efficient transfer of cargo can be done via a lifting winch on the bridge tip, cargo travel system or cargo transporter. The cargo handling options are also available for the rental setups.

Modular Setup

Since jobs and vessels vary all the time, SMST offers flexibility by developing Telescopic Access Bridges consisting of modular components, suitable for all possible operational conditions. 

The modular setup of our gangway systems enables setting up a TAB that meets all project-specific requirements. Working on various heights is possible by means of the SMST stacking modules and/or Height Adjustment System. 

The range of Telescopic Access Bridges are part of the package of offshore systems that SMST develops and builds for the wind industry. Our gangways consisting of stacking modules for various height adjustments are available from stock. Installation of our SMST access systems is done in hours not days!
