Diesel-driven catamarans have dominated the crew transfer vessel (CTV) market for years but are being displaced by new types of vessel with enhanced performance and operability and reduced emissions. New designs that combine features of a service operation vessel and a CTV have been proposed. New forms of propulsion such as batteries, hydrogen and hybrids, new hullforms and new technology are being introduced to make vessels safer and more cost-effective. This webinar will take the pulse of the CTV sector, examine technical and operational issues for CTVs and highlight options available to owners and charterers.

Top 3 questions:
1. CTV operators would maybe benefit from a CFD before building a new vessel?
2. What limit do you see for CTV operations in term of significant wave height or distance from shore? A what point should an operator shift to a different transport and transfer solution and what are the drivers to this choice ?
3. 25m-30 m 24 passenger seems to be the standard format for CTVs today. Do you see the market needing completely different format CTVs in the near future? Or will SATV or other larger CTVs stay an exception ?
