EMS Maritime Offshore (EMO) has signed a charter contract for the WINDEA Three crew transfer vessel (CTV) to service the operating phase of the Trianel Windpark Borkum Phase I offshore wind project.
WINDEA Three began the three-year charter in February, succeeding its sister vessel WINDEA One which has been operating on the project since 2013.
“After approximately seven previous years of successful collaboration between EMO and Trianel, we are looking forward to continuing our support of the project with our CTV “WINDEA three” during the operating phase,” said Knut Gerdes , EMO Managing Director.
The first 200 MW Trianel Windpark Borkum phase comprises 40 5 MW Adwen turbines which have been operational since 2015.
Project owner Trianel Windkraftwerk Borkum is currently building the project’s second phase, which will feature 32 Senvion 6.2 M152 turbines scheduled to be completed in the first half of this year.
