Heila Cranes and its Australian service partner, RGM Maintenance, were present at this occasion. »Sycamore«’s primary task is to provide a training platform for helicopter and unmanned aerial vehicle related operations. The 94 m long vessel, based on Damen’s OPV 2300 design, is also designed as a training platform for torpedo and mine recovery operations, the support of diving operations, and for navigation training. The project required tailor-made cranes for the MATV.
