EnerMech AS appointed as Accredited Service Centre for Reflex Marine personnel carriers in Norway

Expert in marine personnel transfer Reflex Marine has established an accredited service centre (ASC) in Norway for its industry-leading FROG and Toro personnel carriers.

The company has appointed mechanical engineering specialist EnerMech AS as the accredited service centre in the region.

As part of an ongoing programme to ensure uniformly high standards of maintenance and safety for its clients, Reflex Marine has established accredited service centres in the UAE, Canada and the Caspian region, and plans to establish further centres in Singapore, the US and Brazil.

Reflex Marine’s FROG personnel carrier has become widely adopted in Norway as the safest marine method of transferring personnel to and from offshore installations. The Norwegian offshore industry recognises the importance of well-planned marine personnel transfer operations that can be implemented safely in the case of emergencies, or when routine methods are unavailable.

Reflex Marine’s business manager for Europe, Robin Proctor, said: “During the thorough accreditation process, EnerMech demonstrated the superior levels of competence and professionalism required to represent and support Reflex Marine’s products and customers in the region, and we have established a partnership that is certain to greatly benefit our existing and future customers.

“This is part of our wider strategy to develop a global network of accredited service centres which will ensure that our customers, in any part of the world, receive the best local service possible.”

Customers of FROG and TORO personnel carriers in Norway now have a local manufacturer-accredited partner to provide them with the highest standard of service and responsiveness. One of EnerMech AS’s main business lines is the operation, inspection, maintenance, design, engineering and management of offshore cranes and lifting projects.

“When a customer wants to have a FROG or TORO serviced or inspected, or wants to upgrade, they now have a local expert in cranes and lifting, with a sound grasp of local compliance issues, to turn to. Operators can now benefit from an even better level of service for their FROG or TORO device, including frame agreements, training courses conducted in Norwegian, a comprehensive locally held stock of parts, and local inspection and maintenance services which are carried out by manufacturer-trained technicians,” said Proctor.

Trond Møller, general manager of EnerMech AS, said: “This new partnership with Reflex Marine strengthens our offering in the cranes and lifting arena of the Norwegian energy industry. It will improve the way our customers implement and manage marine transfer operations. We will help them to select the right equipment, deliver training on transfer operations, and ensure that a proper inspection and maintenance programme is in place for the lifetime of every carrier.”
