The hydraulic equipment used in offshore operations needs to be strong and corrosion-resistant to perform under the extreme conditions present under the sea. The various types of hydraulic equipment are:

Cargo lifts and elevators are used for transporting cargo from one deck to another, and material handling. The lifts usually come with features such as electrical locking, explosion resistance and high load bearing capabilities. Some of the types of cargo lifts are:

The load carried by lifting equipment used for offshore operations should not exceed the Safe Working Load (SWL). Lifting equipment manufacturers specify the SWL of the equipment to ensure a safe working load is used during operations as overloading can lead to accidental release of the load that can cause serious injuries or even death to personnel.

Exceeding the SWL can also damage the lifting equipment, which will require expensive repair or replacement. Load monitoring equipment ranges from load cells and load measuring pins, running line monitors and tensiometers, saddlebacks, and display instruments for monitoring the load.
