Damen Naval has signed a contract with RH Marine as the first Dutch supplier for the new Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Frigates. RH Marine will supply the Integrated Mission Management System (IMMS), the Integrated Navigation Bridge System (INBS) and the Integrated Platform Management System (IPMS) for each of the four frigates for the Dutch and Belgian navies. The announcement of the cooperation follows the official contract signing on 29 June between the Dutch Ministry of Defence and Damen for the design, construction, and delivery of the new frigates.

RH Marine has started with a system upgrade and maintenance of the Zr.Ms. Johan de Witt, the amphibious transport ship of the Royal Netherlands Navy. All navigation, communication, and control systems on board will be renewed and all electrical components will be inspected.

We are pleased to announce that the management buyout of RH Marine and Bakker Sliedrecht has been completed and that both companies have been acquired by the current directors Hugo Loudon and Stefan Braat.

RH Marine has developed the Multi Platform Procedure Trainer (MPPT) for the Royal Netherlands Navy. This allows the Royal Netherlands Navy Technical Training (KNMTO) to train the situations ashore in a safe situation.

Optimally using the recovered waste heat from the diesel generators on board can reduce the costs for power generation and the number of operating hours.

System integrators Bakker Sliedrecht and RH Marine are going to develop a new electrical system that will enable vessels to sail on methanol and other zero-emission fuels.

System integrator RH Marine is equipping increasingly more yachts and naval vessels with an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) network.

Sailing on methanol makes a major CO2 reduction possible and is seen in the international maritime sector as one of the most feasible fuels for large-scale introduction in the short to medium term.

Nowadays an increasing number of ships are sailing fully electric or on hybrid propulsion to reduce emissions, noise and fuel consumption. Consultants of DNV and RH Marine cooperate to determine which battery systems are suitable for which maritime applications and how to install them safely on board.

This standard prevents crew on the bridge from being overloaded with unnecessary alerts and ensures that only actions that are or are not required will be shown.
