Development and Introduction of New DP Vessel Mission Functionalities

The development of mission-specific Dynamic Positioning (DP) control system modes and functionalities is crucial as DP is applied to increasingly challenging marine projects.

Vendors, owners, energy companies, and class societies collaborate to develop and test these functionalities.

This industry-wide cooperation allows for advancements in deep-water operations, complex subsea infrastructure development, and monopile installation using DP.

Overall, these innovations have enabled the offshore industry to achieve new frontiers in safe and efficient project execution.

Guidance on the various mission specific applications of DP vessels can be found in IMCA M103.
