What's in the whitepaper?
Offshore operations are some of the most complex, dangerous, and logistically challenging environments in the world. Service Operation Vessels (SOVs) are the backbone of these missions, supporting wind and oil & gas projects with precision, resilience, and round-the-clock service. However, life on board presents significant challenges, from crew fatigue to emergency preparedness.
This whitepaper provides a unique lens into daily life on SOVs, operational hurdles, and the rising role of digital solutions in enhancing safety and efficiency. It presents field insights and showcases how Crew Companion—an electronic POB and mustering system—is redefining crew management offshore. With real-world examples, actionable insights, and a strategic overview, this document is an essential guide for decision-makers navigating offshore safety and performance.
