Powerful yet compact - new ROV system now operational

The system is constructed to our own design and is suitable for a variety of jobs, including jobs where deck space is limited and fast mobilization is a requirement. The system can be transported on trailer or lorry and after hooking up air and power will be operational within 15 minutes.

Annual renewal of ISM DoC
The annual renewal audit for endorsement of the Document of Compliance, as prescribed by the ISM Code, was completed on October 21.
The audit was carried out by classification society Bureau Veritas with only a very minor number of NC's being identified. DBB Jack-Up Services A/S thereby holds a clean sheet and valid license for another year of operations.
DBB recently provided cranage and premises for a big stunt for a show broadcasted on Danish TV. TV station "Kanal 6" wanted to perform a huge drop of a family car for new car show "Gear & Lir" to air across the nation and came to us for a solution.
Using our sheer-leg SAMSON the car was hoisted to 80-some meters above the pier at our premises in Århus. Once aloft the car was remotely released from the tackle. Needless to say, following the free-fall, the car was good for only the junk-yard.
The show stars Mads Christensen and Jason Watt and will be broadcasted this fall. Expected date of transmission is Mon Nov 30th. Meanwhile, you can find footage at local daily Århus Stiftstidende.
