Windfarm Installation Vessel (WIV)
The Swire Blue Ocean Windfarm Installation Vessel design focuses on safety, efficiency and reliability. Its advanced specification sets the new industry benchmark for vessel transit speed, lifting capability, DP station keeping and jacking speed, offering a significantly improved operating weather window. The vessel is fitted with high quality equipment, supported by an advanced preventative maintenance system and incorporates a significant level of operating redundancy. Safety is enhanced through a 6 leg design that will allow the vessel to remain safely standing in the event of a sea bed “punch through” during operations. With a large cargo area and high capacity deck loading, these vessels offer considerable flexibility in the carriage and installation of turbines and foundations of all types and sizes. * Technical Specification.pdf.
