Problem:

Why there are significantly higher values in wind loading in some particular sections of vessels despite the model no platforms / ladders or other equipment?

Solution:

Those loads appear because AutoPIPE Vessel is considering that there is a platform and ladder supported every 8 meter even though they are not modelled.

To avoid this, please uncheck the option in the Load Case:,
