A davit arrangement for launching and storing one or more boats or cargo devices, comprising a carrier construction (1, 2) slidingly connected to a rail construction (3), said rail construction (3) is adapted to be fixedly attached to a roof or other overhanging construction (9), a davit arm (6) arranged slidingly connected to the carrier construction (1, 2), said davit arm (6) is adapted to move between a launching position where the davit arrangement is adapted to hoist the boat or cargo device (A, B) to or from the sea surface, and an intermediate position where the boat is retracted into a position within the carrier construction (1, 2) of the davit arrangement, a cylinder arrangement (4) is connected to the carrier construction (1, 2) at a point (4a) and connected to the rail construction (3) at an end (4b), said cylinder arrangement (4) is adapted to move the carrier construction (1, 2) between the intermediate position and a storage position where the boat or cargo device (A, B) is adapted to be stored, said davit arm (6) and cylinder arrangement (4) is adapted

A fluid delivery vessel for containing and introducing a fluid into a wellbore includes a hull including a deck and a fluid storage area, and a fluid delivery system including a conduit having a first end fluidically connected to the fluid storage area and a second end. The conduit selectively delivers a fluid from the fluid storage area into the wellbore. A remotely operated vehicle (ROV) system support platform is mounted to the deck, and a ROV deployment system supported by the ROV system support platform. The ROV deployment system is operable to selectively deploy and retrieve an ROV.

Disclosed is a measurement system for aquatic environments, including a surface vessel and a submersible device, the submersible device including a hull, propulsion, guide, and sensors for taking measurements. The submersible device can either be launched from the vessel in order to then maneuver underwater independently of the vessel during a remote deployment phase, or be stored in a vessel during a non-deployment phase, the vessel including at least one hull and propulsion and guide, the at least one hull of the vessel including a submerged portion located below a waterline. The submerged portion of the at least one hull of the vessel includes a recess designed to receive at least an upper portion of the hull of the submersible device when the latter is stored in the vessel, the recess being arranged entirely below the waterline so that the submersible device remains completely submerged during storage.

A lifeboat launch control system. The lifeboat launch control system has a wheel trunk that runs along the side of a ship. An axle box is vertically movable in the wheel trunk. The axle box has a pair of wheels on opposing sides of a bar. A shaft is removably inserted into the bar. The shaft is removable from the bar by a handle. When the shaft is removed from the bar, the lifeboat is released from the ship.
