Hurricane Identification

Stumbled across this photo of a big Hurricane RIB earlier today but don't seem to be able to find any further details or specs... It's a long shot but does anybody happen to know any more about it? Looks to be some sort of crew transfer boat...

Thanks

Looks like a foam collar to me. From the lifeboat canister on the back, and the large cabin, I'd agree: some sort of offshore crew transport. Oil industry, maybe?
