With a stabilising system to hold feeder vessels for the transfer of offshore wind components in high sea states, the WTIV enhances installation efficiency by extending the operational weather window, ensuring the WTIV can carry out uninterrupted installations, improving operational efficiency and reducing total cost and time of installation.
Mainboard-listed Seatrium has successfully delivered a wind turbine installation vessel (WTIV) to Maersk Offshore Wind on Feb 26, following successful and timely completion of sea trial activities and final readiness evaluations at Seatrium’s flagship Tuas Boulevard Yard.
The WTIV is the first-of-its-kind and is custom-engineered and built by Seatrium to install some of the world’s largest offshore wind turbines. Equipped with a 180-metre hook height, the crane supports the installation of 15+MW-class turbines.
