ACT Terra Firma Cleaner is a blend- ed product with specially engineered microbes that are mixed into a formulation which provides the perfect environment for a dry and waterless non oxygenated bioremediation. The only Bioremediation product that can sustain colonization in subzero tempters at -20 degrees Celsius, ACT Terra Firma also has the ability to draw moisture to itself from the atmosphere and the contamination in the most extreme conditions.

ACT Terra Firma Cleaner is an industrial formulation having a high level of petroleum and pro- tein based microorganisms, along with its use on petroleum based spills the formulation is also designed for animal waste using the process of bio- remediation to decompose the waste in soil and on hard surfaces and has a natural ability to eliminate odors stopping air pollutants by the remediation of the gases. The immediate encapsulation process stops Rain Water Runoff and reduces the animal waste to a compost material that can be used in gardens, flower beds, and promoting the growth of plant life and returns the soil to a healthy state.

This leading to significant cost reductions for the industry. OCTOPUS-Onboard is a state-of-the-art modular decision support system for ships and other floating structures. Shipping compa- nies and offshore contractors have used OCTOPUS- Onboard since 2003 for route and operation planning and optimization of speed, heading and fuel consump- tion in every weather condition. One of the extensions within OCTOPUS-Onboard is the Dynamic Positioning capability forecast function, DP for short. The OCTO- PUS-DP functionality gives offshore vessels the possi- bility to make optimum use of a safe time window for their weather-sensitive operations. Where traditional DP systems try to keep the vessel’s position during an offshore operation, OCTOPUS-DP takes it one step fur- ther. A forecast is given if the vessel is capable of maintaining her position and heading in changing envi- ronmental and weather conditions, hours and days ahead. With DP capability the crew can easily see if it is sensible and efficient to start or go on with the oper- ation at sea. The benefits are clear: A clear and com- plete indication of the operational windows for weath- er-sensitive operations at sea, Better and efficient preparation and execution of projects, Less damages and stress to the vessel, Optimal use of man and machine in a safe environment, leading to significant cost reductions.
