Next generation wind installation vessel

Tuesday, April 11 2023

Wind Energy – Installation Vessel Design

Maersk Supply Service has entered a collaboration with GustoMSC to design the next generation of Wind Installation Vessel.

The aim is to create an upgraded version that is fit for purpose for the growing offshore wind market in Europe.

The new design will build on the same patent and characteristics of the current feeder concept, which was designed to operate in US waters. This unique patented design will allow the jack-up Wind Installation Vessel to stay on location at the wind park, while only tugs and barges sail back and forth from port to collect the wind turbine tower, nacelle, and blades.

This concept is cost-competitive and expected to be more than 30% more efficient than conventional jack-up vessels.

Maersk Supply Service and GuscoMSC will start the basic design process shortly and expect to conclude it later in 2023.
