Industrial rope access

Rope Access is a rope-based method for access.

Industrial rope access

Since the beginning of the 90's, we have experienced that access technology is a safe and cost-effective solution for access. The method is used by all our disciplines and is relevant for all types of industry, such as oil and gas, construction and renewable industry.

The importance of training and practical experience

Industrial rope access is a challenging profession where the safety level required to perform well cannot be achieved through theoretical knowledge alone. Training and practical experience is crucial for the ability to assess situations and understand HSE.

Therefore, SOFT have divided the education into several levels with requirements for the number of logged hours before admission to courses at the next level can begin. All industrial rope access assignments must have a safety supervisor in charge.
