Certification of Towing / Anchor Handling Winch Pull Test

Towing and Anchor Handling winches operate under extreme loads during offshore operations, making certified pull testing essential for safety, reliability, and compliance. Our Certification of Towing / Anchor Handling Winch Pull Test evaluates the winch’s performance by applying controlled loads to verify its pulling capacity, brake holding power, and mechanical durability under real working conditions.

During testing, our certified inspectors measure the winch’s line pull at various stages, monitor hydraulic and mechanical responses, assess drum alignment, and verify the efficiency of braking and emergency stopping systems. We also check wire rope tension, spooling patterns, gear function, and load cell accuracy to ensure the winch performs consistently and safely during high-demand offshore tasks.

All tests are performed using calibrated equipment in accordance with international offshore and marine standards. After completing the evaluation, we provide a comprehensive Winch Pull Test Certificate that includes detailed load readings, performance graphs, safety observations, and compliance verification.

This mandatory certification helps operators ensure their winches are fully capable of towing, mooring, and anchor handling under demanding marine conditions—reducing operational risk, preventing equipment failure, and providing assurance to clients and regulatory bodies.
