Offshore Cabin RIBs

Cabin RIBs.

Looking to charter or purchase a Cabin RIB for your offshore project? Combine the manoeuvrability of a RIB with a sheltered workspace for your crew. Novi Marine tailors the vessel, equipment and charter period to your operation, with a focus on crew welfare.

Overview

A sheltered workplace at sea

Offshore work takes place in changing weather conditions. Wind, rain and spray place demands on crews spending long days on the water. A Cabin RIB provides shelter while underway and between tasks, alongside a working deck for your operations.

A Cabin RIB is a versatile platform for guard and standby duties, cable laying support, and transporting crew and equipment. The cabin shields people and equipment from the elements, while the deck layout is tailored to the work outside.

Novi Marine considers your operating location, project duration, crew and equipment requirements. Together, we select a charter vessel suited to your tasks and day-to-day work on board.

Crew welfare

Comfort is part of the operation.

A good workplace at sea involves more than deck space. Shelter, suitable seating and a practical layout matter especially during long shifts. We discuss your comfort requirements and match the Cabin RIB to your crew and the duration of their work.
