High Speed Transfers signs contracts with Damen

Thursday, December 1 2022

Wind Energy – Fast Crew Suppliers

Offshore services provider High Speed Transfers (HST) Marine and Damen Shipyards announced that a contract has been signed for the supply of three new Fast Crew Suppliers 2710s.

The three vessels will be fitted with 190kW battery arrays that will enable them to operate emissions-free both when in harbour and when loitering offshore awaiting the retrieval of their technicians.

In zero-emission mode, the vessels will be propelled by an electrical motor that is connected via the gearbox (PTI) to the propeller shaft. When sailing in diesel-mode, the electric motors are able to work in reverse as PTO and can be used to charge the batteries and provide the hotel load for the vessel.

With the FCS 2710 Hybrids already in build at Damen Shipyards Antalya, Turkey, in anticipation of future demand, the delivery of all three will take place in early 2024. HST will be closely involved throughout as a key part of the build team, with all involved working together to ensure their success.

Once operational, the FCS 2710s will receive ongoing support and maintenance services from Damen’s service hub located at Portsmouth on the UK’s south coast, as part of Damen’s commitment to providing through-life support for its vessels. They will also be IMO Tier 3 compliant and feature all the latest upgrades made to the class based on customer feedback and technological advances.
