Two products from Kongsberg were nominated for the Norwegian Innovation Award
The new Kongsberg Deck Operator Trainer and the Kongsberg Evotec Bulk Hose Safety Device (BHSU) were nominated for the ONS Innovation Awards, and the winners will be announced at ONS 2012 on August 29th. . Among them, the Kongsberg Evotec bulk hose safety device was developed by Kongsberg Evotec, a subsidiary of Kongsberg Maritime, to reduce the risk of casualties in marine loading/unloading operations. The system is a joint development of the Statoil LOOP technology development project in cooperation with Norwegian offshore carrier Eidesvik AS. Usually the OSV crew needs to stand on the deck to manually operate the bulk hose for loading and unloading. Kongsberg Evotec's unique BHSU system makes this operation safer, allowing crew members to operate in the cabin without having to enter hazardous areas, enabling remote handling of bulk hoses and reducing the risk of casualties.
The die casting process involves the use of a furnace, metal, die casting machine, and die.

The metal, typically a non-ferrous alloy such as aluminum, is melted in the furnace and then injected into the dies in the die casting machine. After the molten metal is injected into the dies, it rapidly cools and solidifies into the final part, called the casting.
The castings that are created in this process can vary greatly in size and weight, ranging from a couple ounces to 100 pounds. One common application of die cast parts are housings - thin-walled enclosures, often requiring many ribs and bosses on the interior.
Metal housings for a variety of appliances and equipment are often die cast.
Several automobile components are also manufactured using die casting, including pistons, cylinder heads, and engine blocks. Other common die cast parts include propellers, gears, bushings, pumps, and valves.
