North Star has crewed up the first of its offshore wind fleet with 42 experienced seafarers, 60% of which have moved across from its existing North Sea workforce.
This completes the crew for the firm’s new hybrid-electric service operations vessel (SOV), the Grampian Tyne, alongside the catering specialist team from Aramark. The new North Star ship is the first of four which will support ongoing operations and maintenance work at the Dogger Bank Wind Farm over the next decade for joint development partners Equinor, SSE Renewables and Vårgrønn.
