This week, Maritime Craft Services (MCS) will take delivery of one of the two additional Twin Axe Fast Crew Suppliers 2610 ordered from Damen, The Scotsman reports.
After MCS took delivery of three Damen Twin Axe FCS 2610s last month, it ordered two more, named MCS Coromell and MCS Boreas. The company will have MCS Coromell in its hands this week and the vessel will be immediately deployed to the Greater Gabbard offshore wind farm.
MCS’ fleet has grown to 21 vessels, as the offshore wind sector is growing fast and demands more and more vessels to support the construction and O&M of wind farms. The company has expanded not only in its vessel offering, but it has also created jobs and now has over 180 employees.
“The offshore wind farm sector is booming across the UK and Europe as more developments spring up. That sector in particular is key to our long-term plans,” The Scotsmn quotes Dirk Kuyt, Managing Director of MCS , as saying.
