Watch our short video below to see how easily our offshore S-Cape evacuation system can be used in an emergency.
The OFFSHORE S-Cape™ Evacuation System
The system uses basic abseiling techniques which anyone with minimal training can perform safely. The Mark VI provides an easy and versatile means of controlled descent from offshore installations such as platforms, tankers, drill rigs, etc., in the event that an emergency escalates to a point where the standard evacuation systems can no longer be used.
Our S-cape kits are tried and tested in industry and used by operatives as a last resort when they need to safely evacuate, when it’s stuck or immobilised at height and their life is at risk.
This new and improved kit is hermetically sealed, offering up to 9 years of operational life with no periodic service costs.
