OPUS Acquires Three Crew Transfer Vessels

OPUS has taken over three formerly bareboat-chartered crew transfer vessels (“SOLWAY”, “DEVERON” and “CARBOCLYDE”) from Fintry Marine Ltd. (Isle of Man).

“As the exclusive agent of our British partner TURBINE TRANSFERS we provide chartering service for a fleet of 45 crew transfer vessels in German waters since many years. Now with the completed acquisition of three crew transfer vessels we can provide even better availability of modern tonnage to our customers, thereby improving the fleet mix with TURBINE TRANSFERS and the other partners from the chartering network of WINDFARMBASE,” said OPUS MARINE’s managing director Bernhard Messer.

All three ships are registered in the German ship register of Hamburg and fly the flag of Great Britain. With this acquisition OPUS remains a commercial and technical ship manager.
