MacGregor, part of Cargotec, has received orders from Awind AS, a subsidiary of Integrated Wind Solutions headquartered in Oslo, Norway, to supply equipment packages for two new ‘walk-to-work’ Commissioning Service Operation Vessels (CSOV).
Both vessels will be built at the China Merchants Heavy Industry (CMHI) shipyard in Nantong, China, with each equipment package consisting of a 3D motion compensated electrical gangway system, Colibri crane and a remote control station located on the vessel bridge. Awind has also secured option agreements for up to four additional vessels. Both vessels will be prepared for continuous zero-emission operations, and will operate as mother vessels for wind turbine technicians.
