About
DeckPlanner is a decision-support tool built to bring clarity and control to subsea deck loading and mobilisation planning. Teams can model equipment layout, calculate cumulative weights, and track centre of gravity as the plan evolves. By visualising load distribution and stack order before mobilisation, planners surface issues early, when change is cheap rather than offshore. DeckPlanner replaces manual calculations and spreadsheet sprawl with a structured workflow that improves safety margins and accelerates mobilisation readiness, reducing uncertainty at the exact point where mistakes are most expensive.
Highlights
- Subsea deck loading and layout planning
- Real-time weight and centre-of-gravity tracking
- Designed for offshore mobilisation scenarios
- Reduces reliance on manual calculations and spreadsheets
Outcomes
- Improved confidence in deck loading and mobilisation plans
- Reduced risk associated with load imbalance and poor stack order
- Faster planning cycles through structured, repeatable workflows
- Better communication of load intent across engineering and marine teams
