Redwise-DCP ensures that the risk to the safety of navigation is reduced to “as low as reasonably practicable” in the dense waters of the English Channel and the North sea. The highly skilled pilots are also deployed as offshore VTS operators and use their expertise to assist shipyard as ship owners with sea trials and conduct training for crews in all parts of the world. Furthermore, the deep sea pilots are conducting ship delivery voyages, further emphasizing the synergies within the service portfolio of Redwise.
