UAE-based fabricator Lamprell has signed a memorandum of understanding with Taiwanese owner and operator Dong Fang Offshore for a newbuild wind turbine installation and maintenance vessel.
The GustoMSC-designed NG-9000X vessel will be built in compliance with Taiwanese shipping law.
It will feature a heavy-lift crane, DP-2 positioning, legs with spud cans for challenging conditions, accommodation quarters, and will be capable of transporting and installing two 15MW-class turbines simultaneously.
The agreement outlines steps for a collaboration between Dong Fang Offshore, Lamprell, and prospective regional clients. That includes the development of a cost-effective and reliable vessel solution.
“We appreciate the strong willingness and commitment of Lamprell to partner with us to develop a solution for the continued development and maintenance of offshore wind projects in Taiwan,” said Polin Chen, CEO of Dong Fang Offshore.
