Faster medical response

Posted to on Share:

Tidal Transit, the company that transports technicians to and from the Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm (SSOWF) located between 17 and 23 miles off the coast of Norfolk in the North Sea, is now providing a medical first responder on its personnel transfer vessels (PTVs).

Since the wind farm became operational, SSOWF has become increasingly aware that there would be a significant risk of being unable to administer advanced medical care in the face of injury, due to the remote location of the wind farm. Anticipated response times would be 40 minutes to 1½ hours from local life boats and SAR helicopters.

Tidal Transit now provides first responders as part of its regular crews, which affords an even faster medical response, and will provide SSOWF with a long term and sustainable solution to health and safety.
