With over two decades of back deck experience, our team understands the unique challenges that arise at every stage of offshore operations. From mobilisation and maintenance to installation and recovery, we provide the expertise and support needed to ensure safe and efficient execution in any environment.

Our versatile fleet of lifting equipment, including winches, marine cranes, spoolers and decommissioning tools, is engineered to integrate with any back deck to deliver reliable performance in the most demanding offshore conditions.

Combined with our extensive range of flexlay equipment and the expertise of our in-house engineering team, we deliver tailored, flexible solutions that keep your back-deck operations running smoothly from start to finish.

From complex shore pulls to nearshore lifting campaigns, MDL combines proven technology with hands-on know-how to deliver predictable project outcomes.

Maintaining consistent, high-capacity tension is essential for safe execution of any shore pull operation. MDL’s modular linear winch systems, featuring advanced socket-passing technology, deliver continuous and precise line control throughout the operation.

Backed by MDL’s Project Management & Engineering expertise, our teams work closely with clients to plan, mobilise and execute each shore pull with confidence.

With decades of offshore experience - including FPSOs and platforms - our team understands the practical challenges of working within confined deck spaces, managing complex mobilisation plans and maintaining operational efficiency under demanding conditions.

Through compact, modular lifting systems and careful operational planning, we deliver safe, efficient and compliant topside campaigns. Our hands-on expertise ensures seamless integration with existing assets, predictable performance and complete control from mobilisation to demobilisation.

From wire and rope to fibre optic umbilicals, MDL delivers controlled, precise spooling between reels and winches destined for offshore or onshore deployment. Our in-house technical expertise encompasses mechanical, hydraulic and control systems to configure the right spooling setup for your scope, ensuring nothing is left to chance.

Using our dedicated spooling bed, we apply precise back tension to ensure even layering, while our experienced team oversees optimised handling. The result: project-ready equipment and confidence in product integrity.

With a heritage rooted in offshore lifting, MDL has spent over two decades refining winch and lifting technologies for the toughest marine environments. Our team combines technical knowledge, specialist skillset and competency to manage lifts of any complexity.

From bespoke design to full lifecycle support, every system is built for strength, safety and reliability offshore. That is why operators worldwide trust MDL to keep their lifting operations predictable.
