Covering the entire life span of offshore wind farms

The urgent push for more renewable energy production to achieve climate goals translates into many new offshore wind projects. Simultaneously, ambitious climate goals also call for vessels to be developed with solutions for zero-emission operations. This is the time when you need a partner who can give you a competitive edge and help reduce risk along the way.

Many new offshore wind farms are located further from shore, quite often also in deeper waters, rougher conditions and they feature ever-larger wind turbines. This leads to the development of new ships that can handle the new requirements these fields and turbines pose.

Companies that rely on ocean-going vessels are under pressure to reduce their environmental footprint. In addition to the IMO target, the?European Parliament?has voted for a similar reduction.

The demand for greener vessels for offshore wind farms is expected to increase with the growth of the offshore wind market, which is projected to reach USD 1 trillion by 2040.

ULSTEIN provides ship designs, system solutions and services for efficient and reliable marine operations. This includes ship designs for all cycles in the life of the offshore wind farms, with solutions for environmentally friendly vessels to serve the various stages as shown in the illustration below.
