Royal IHC will deliver the entire spread including elevated cable highway, chutes, working habitats, quadrant handling system, active heave compensated winch, A&R winches, and deck winches.
"This will be delivered with an integrated control system linking between new and client owner-furnished equipment," Royal IHC said.
