Holland Marine Lifts B.V.’s Post

Port, Vessel and Subsea Opportunities in the Celtic Sea 🌊 🚢 Current readiness There is an active marine industry already operating in Wales and the South West. 34 companies have been identified as having skills in the sector: 28 vessel operators and 6 subsea engineering companies. The majority operate fleets of small vessels suitable for a wide range of uses that could cover towing, crew transfer, survey and some heavy lifts ops in shallow water. However, there is slight concern over which port facilities within the locality will be suitable for the construction stage due to depth of berth, crane capabilities, height of clearance and crucially, the port side lay down space needed with Port Talbot and Falmouth being the sites showing the most readiness. Innovation is also changing the way vessels are being used offshore. 🤖 And, there are a number of companies in the region with existing expertise in remotely operated vessels (ROVs) and autonomous/unmanned surface vessels which are being increasingly used for site investigation and inspection operations. Site operators will also likely decide to use service operating vessels (SOVs) during maintenance periods to host crew on site for a period of time and avoid a daily three-hour commute to site. There is capability in the region for ship builders to design and construct a vessel with this type of specification. Or, there is an additional opportunity for companies such as A&P group or Mainstay Marine to repurpose vessels as SOVs. However, many existing companies in the UK offer CSOV/SOV vessels with some constructing ESOVs and greener options for transfer. Other opportunities include regional ports working with vessel owners, operators and site developers to collaborate on charters and secure deals. The biggest developers, including Orsted, RWE and blade manufacturers, Siemens Gamesa, are all now securing ships on charters that last up to several years. I would anticipate over the next 5-10 years with developments ramping up across the UK, EU and globally too, as we all race towards our decarbonisation targets, that vessel availability and port cability will be stretched and secured partnerships will be the key to timely deployments for developers. The opportunity to secure contracts and to collaborate is huge. Now is the time to see Ports, Supply-Chain and people selling themselves and grabbing a slice of the pie. And, ok, we don’t want to get ahead of ourselves but the other option may be missing out altogether with port infrastructure changes taking on average 4 years, vessel construction 3-5 years and developers and vessel companies already securing contracts for operations into 2030… If you have something to offer and more importantly, a lot to gain, I’d put your hand up now. #celticsea #flow #floatingoffshorewind #ports #portinfrastructure #portdevelopments #netzero #greenmarine #vessels

What are the key trends for tugs and towage in 2024? Riviera Maritime Media Ltd takes a look into owners, operators, designers and shipyards are adapting to changing trends in towage requirements coming from the shipping industry’s drive to decarbonize. One key trend emerging is that more tugs are being built to use batteries, electric or hybrid propulsion systems to reduce their environmental impact. E1 Marine is proud to contribute to this evolution through the ongoing development of the M/V Hydrogen One workboat in collaboration with Maritime Partners and Elliot Bay Design Group. When it hits the water, the vessel will be IMO 2030 compliant, meet the USCG’s Subchapter M requirements, and have an operational range of 550 miles before refueling. All of this will be achieved whilst maintaining the highest safety and efficiency standards. Find out more on the top trends: https://lnkd.in/e2wDmkNv #IMO #Safety #Decarbonization

The cost of maintaining your aircraft’s powerplants is perhaps the most expensive element of owning and operating a business jet or turboprop. If your aircraft is likely to be sitting idle for longer than normal, it is recommended that you take some extra steps to keep your engines in good working condition, minimizing the potential for their deterioration.

We have walk to work gangways, this looks like a similar design to dampen the motion on crew transfer vessels. I would be interested to hear what my naval architect connections think of this latest innovation in vessels. How does it measure up against surface effect ships SES. #shipbuilding #crewtransfer #offshorewind
