RENEWED CHARTER: Equinor and ESVAGT have extended their good cooperation with a 5-year contract extension for the vessel ‘Esvagt Njord’ at Dudgeon Offshore Wind Farm. The extension runs until 2026.
Dynamic Positioning (DP) workshop for navigators on ESVAGT’s Service Operation Vessels (SOV) strengthens risk assessments and trains optimal reactions.
The new organisation in ESVAGT will strengthen both its focus on HSE and its continual optimisation of internal processes within service delivery.
After a 2016 entirely without LTI, ESVAGT has recorded a few lost time incidents in 2017. “We must strengthen our safety culture and prioritise our focus on good behaviours,” says head of HSEQ, Charlotte Feldvoss.
ESVAGT's new Head of HSEQ Charlotte Feldvoss sees a strong safety culture as essential for ESVAGT's results.
Every ESVAGT employee has to renew their OPITO certificate every third year. This maintains competence levels and ensures good knowledge sharing.
They have courses and certificates. They practice theory via remote learning and they train it in practice ad nauseam.
ESVAGT was assessed by FPAL on 10 and 11 March 2016.
ESVAGT has been classified ’high performing’ after unannounced vessel inspections.
VESSEL UPGRADES: Part of the original ESVAGT fleet is undergoing modernisation.
ESVAGT’s workshop is being optimised to improve operations, logistics, the environment and working environment – and to prime it for continued growth.
ESVAGT has also reduced fuel consumption by changing to another type of paint on vessel hulls.
