Business profile
Zelim won grant funding from OWGP to undertake commercialisation tests of its patented overboard recovery solution, enabling the business to secure customer demonstrators with both a crew transfer vessel (CTV) operator and an offshore wind farm owner operator, and deepen its relationship with wind farm original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Immediately deployable unmanned rescue crafts reduce risk to rescue crews.
Deliver blanket health and safety coverage across a wind farm.
Frees up resources for operations and maintenance activity.
Zelim’s patented overboard recovery system sets a new benchmark in safety, providing the ability to recover people from the water in seconds with a single operator. Where other solutions are slower at getting people out of the water and challenging to operate alone, Zelim provides unrivaled speed and single handed or autonomous solutions.

What they say
“
Working with OWGP has been a great experience, both logistically and from an industry engagement perspective, where we have had access to industry support throughout the duration of our project; helping to make sure that we develop products that are fit for the market. Overall, we are looking to continue and deepen our relationship with OWGP and would encourage any other companies looking to get into Offshore Wind to apply.”
