SBM Offshore N.V. is pleased to announce that its subsidiary company SBM-GustoMSC has signed a contract with Dubai based Lamprell Energy for the design supply of two windmill installation jack-up vessels.
Additionally SBM-GustoMSC received orders from the yard for the supply of the innovative continuous jacking systems and large 800 ton offshore cranes that will be fitted on these vessels.
The units are of the GustoMSC NG-9000C type, a state-of-the-art jack-up vessel that has been specifically developed for the offshore windfarm installation industry. The two vessels have been ordered earlier this year from Lamprell by Fred. Olsen Windcarrier and they are the 2nd and 3rd units of this type to be built so far.
The total portfolio value of these orders is around € 60 million.
