English term or phrase: heave
Active heave compensation (AHC) is a technique used on lifting equipment to reduce the influence of waves upon offshore operations. AHC differs from Passive Heave Compensation by having a control system that actively tries to compensate for any movement at a specific point, using power to gain accuracy.

levantamento
Explanation:
Chamo a atenção para o uso de "offshore" e "lifting" no texto citado. Isso me leva a crer que se trata de um contexto náutico. De acordo com o Dicionário Oxford:

heave: (Nautical) Pull, raise, or move (a boat or ship) by hauling on a rope or ropes.
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/heave

Dos três verbos usados na definição, "raise" é o que faz mais sentido. Coincide com o uso de "lifting" no texto-fonte. Definitivamente, eu traduziria por "levantamento". Aparentemente, AHC é uma 'tecnica de compensação ativa de levantamento de um navio ou barco. Assim eu entendo.
