Did you know
- Rolls-Royce has a long history in marine equipment, with its deck machinery solutions, including anchor winches, being a core part of its offerings. The company has been supplying anchor mooring winches since at least 1987, with upgrades to existing systems occurring in 1998 for deeper water contracts.
- The KGW anchor windlass is part of Rolls-Royce's broader range of deck machinery, which includes modular anchor and mooring winches, as well as specialized systems for offshore supply vessels. Rolls-Royce also offers other anchor winch models, such as the MW 160E-S/CU1G3.
- Rolls-Royce anchor windlasses are chosen for their robust design and ability to handle demanding offshore operations, particularly in deepwater oil and gas exploration where mooring lines are heavier and more challenging to manage. They are designed to improve operational safety and efficiency.
