Reflex Marine - Offshore Personnel Transfer Solutions

Reflex Marine provides innovative and risk focused crew transfer solutions, delivering value to our clients by setting the highest possible standards for offshore personnel transfer. Established in 1992, our first target was to raise the standard for one of the most important, and yet often neglected, areas of offshore operations – the safe transfer of personnel by crane.

THE FROG - MARINE PERSONNEL TRANSFER CAPSULE

In 1995 Reflex Marine launched a new marine transfer capsule to the oil and gas industry. The launch followed an extensive, risk-based review of existing crane transfer operations and the most rigorous testing and verification program ever performed on equipment used for moving people by crane. The design of the Frog addresses the four main risks associated with transferring personnel by crane – the seats and seat-belts virtually eliminate the risk of personnel falling mid-transfer, the feet and the suspension under the seats protect against heavy landings, the frame protects against lateral impacts and the buoyancy ensures that the Frog is self-righting and floats if immersed in water. The Frog provides the industry with a significantly safer means of transferring personnel by crane and has set a new benchmark in this area.

The Frog has now been extensively used by most major oil companies in diverse conditions. These companies have performed millions of routine transfers around the world, including high profile projects in the Atlantic Frontier, North Sea, Mediterranean, Canada, South East Asia, Australia, Russia and the Caspian Sea. It has also gained a reputation as a highly effective tool for down-manning, evacuation and MedEvac situations.
