Abstract

See full text

A line-handling apparatus for use in assembling a line being deployed from a vessel is disclosed. The line includes at least two sections of, for example, chain and wire in longitudinal sequence. A hang-off carriage has at least one line support adapted to support the line. The line support is capable of supporting a length of line hanging from the carriage via that support. The carriage is movable around a horizontal area located beneath separate line deployment locations on the vessel spaced horizontally from each other, to align the line support with each line deployment location, and to move the supported length of line between the line deployment locations for connection of subsequent sections of the line.
