Th o r o u g h Te s t i n g a t Fa c t o r y We are extremely concerned about the final quality of our products. All our products are tested at factory level as part of our standard procedure, such as a full scale test of a complete, fully assembled hook station including calibration on our own test stands, meaning no further testing is needed once the hook station is installed on site. Marimatech is probably the only company capable of such a load test. Wo r l d w i d e Re p r e s e n tat i o n Marimatech are represented with sales agents and service net worldwide. All our agents have extensive knowledge of our products and are frequently updated on our new solutions at our service stations in Europe, America and Asia. Check our website for listings of sales agents and service stations. Th e Cl i e n t, Ou r Pa r t n e r Foundations for optimal solutions are laid out early in all projects. Our extensive product knowledge and competence are combined in a strong and experienced project team, who tailor the solution to the individual needs of each customer.

The OPTIMOOR is an optional addition to the Mooring Master software. Feel free to download our MLMS leaflet from our website. 5
L a s e r Do c k i n g Sy s t e m s s a f e d o c k i n g w i t h w o r l d l e a d i n g t e c h n o l o g y MARIMATECH has installed more Laser Docking Systems (LDS) than any other in the world underlining the innovative, safe and robust design of our system. The Laser Docking System measures the exact and real-time distance and speed data providing invaluable information to the captain or pilot when berthing a ship. The data is shown on a large display activating alarm lamps if at risk of reaching critical limits. Furthermore, the Black Box function of LDS logs the entire docking operation enabling replay to evaluate the actual incident. As an extra feature MARIMATECH s Laser Docking System incorporates a built-in drift warning system for constant measurement of ship distance to harbour. Ty p i c a l Ap p l i c at i o n s Oil terminals LNG/LPG terminals Other high risk terminals Mineral Terminals Th e m o s t r e l i a b l e s y s t e m MARIMATECH s Laser Docking System is based on our comprehensive technology of berthing combined with our own developed instruments as well as the best components from well-known manufacturers.

E-Se a Fix Pi l o t E-Se a CAT Sy s t e m f o r a c c u r a t e piloting a n d b e r t h i n g Covering any piloting and berthing function the E-Sea CAT system has been designed to balance the requirements of reliable and accurate function, easy and quick operation, and a lightweight, compact size. The CAT system uses the newest and most reliable positioning technology, and depending on either deep sea piloting or VLCC berthing, the requirements for accuracy may vary from 1 metre down to 2cm. The E-Sea CAT is built around 3 main systems with a comprehensive range of GPS technology. Ty p i c a l Ap p l i c at i o n s: CAT I: Deep sea piloting - en route navigation of all vessels as well as channel and harbour manoeuvres of small to medium size vessels Flexibility The intuitive E-Sea Guide software is used for all systems and is characterised by quick setup onboard, user-friendly operation and an advanced replay function. Furthermore, using the same software for all E-Sea CAT systems provides high flexibility and accustomed use. Other features include: All systems can be integrated with each other Variety of add-on functionality for individu al requirements. Optional shore station for increased ac curacy and safety in berthing operations. Can be used on any notebook PC with Wi-Fi Full support of AIS in all systems Lightweight, portable units for fast and secure piloting or berthing CAT II: Navigation in confined & tidal waters along with heavy traffic such as berthing and docking of small to medium sizes vessels - en route navigation to harbour manoeuvres and offshore positioning CAT III: Full berthing accuracy - any ship, any application from docking a VLCC to ship trials and demanding offshore operation 10

O f f s h o r e Positioning u s i n g t h e E-Se a CAT t e c h n o l o g y MARIMATECH s unique technology of E-Sea CAT is the ideal solution for offshore positioning. Apart from a positioning tool, it is also an information system, which can distribute environmental information along with mooring load information. The E-Sea CAT system is available in all options from standard GPS all the way up to sophisticated solutions with speed accuracy in the range of ± 1 cm/sec (0.02 kt). Ty p i c a l Ap p l i c at i o n s FPSO/FSO & SPM docking and drift warning Oil rig positioning Positioning of ships into locks & docks Ship s trials Pilotage Lightering operations Ferry operations Navigation & positioning through confined waters Pr e c i s e Of f s h o r e Positioning Located on board the ship the E-Sea CAT system transmits the calculated position to the pilot s E-Sea Pad, as well as to the FSO or shore based computer. Several vessels can use the system simultaneously on a single frequency as each user has a unique ID code. No differential shore station is needed. The system is extremely robust and offers features such as: Multi user system with optimum GPS accuracy E-Sea CAT can be used on any notebook PC with Wi-Fi Full support of AIS in all systems Waterproof, lightweight, and portable units with no cables 12
