ARTP E-Series Back-up Compensated Tension Lift Frame
The top of the line ARTP E-Series is an integrated Tension Frame which is able to provide passive or back-up heave compensation, incorporating ICON’s unique control valve arrangement for rapid completions workover riser (CWOR) or Subsea Landing String (SLS) protection.
The E-Series is best suited for workovers and completions in harsh operating sea states, where primary or back-up compensation is required with large (up to 10m) stroke capacity.
