No rockin' no rollin'
We have revolutionised vessel stabilisation with our unique solutions.
No more waiting for cloudless sky. JUST GO.
Dacoma’s patented and award-winning vessel stabilizer
The Airkeel is a patented, air-filled appendage mounted at the bottom of the vessel hull. It swings in an inverse-pendulum motion from side to side, actively counteracting roll motions.
The swinging motion is optimised by using adaptive control based on Machine Learning/AI. Intelligent stabilisation fully ensures the best use of Airkeel in all situations, both in adverse weather and under varying load conditions of the vessel.
Safe and comfortable crew transfer. That is our mission.
Airkeel
Airkeel is an ideal fit for offshore professionals who want to achieve high performance, extended operational capabilities and cost efficiency with one stabilizer solution.
The Airkeel stabilizer works at all speeds (0 - 40 kn) and is suitable for any type of vessel up to 40 meters (both multihull & monohull). It’s designed to provide effective vessel stabilization without requiring much space inside of the boat. With a short installation period, we’ll have you operating in no time.
New build or refit, Airkeel installation only takes 1-2 weeks. Contact us, to learn how Airkeel supports exactly your use case. Our sales team is happy to assist you with custom tailored solutions. We also offer rental or leasing packages.
Capacity
Increase cargo and crane capacity of your work- or crewboat up to a factor of two.
Increase your crew satisfaction and productivity with an unprecedented damping of roll motions and reduce motion sickness.
Productivity
Increasing the roll stability of your vessel means increasing seaworthiness. Airkeel adds 0.5 m significant wave height at sea states where other boats need to stay in harbour.

Environment
Extend your operational window under adverse weather conditions by 25%.
Reduce fuel consumption and C02 emission. The total ship resistance is reduced by 5-10% at semi-planing vessel speeds, where ship resistance is dominated by wave-making.
This corresponds to cutting CO2 emissions and fuel consumptions by the same amount.
