Offshore Wind Services (OWS) has acquired a multipurpose / diving support vessel “Offshore Beaver”, formerly known as “Union Beaver”.
Before entering the fleet of OWS, “Offshore Beaver” had supported projects in the North Sea for Boskalis. With her 32 pax accommodation capacity, 25t crane, salvage winches and 4-point mooring system, she is capable of laying her own anchor pattern, providing oil spill response solutions, acting as mother ship for operations involving daughter crafts and providing craning services offshore. The vessel has been dry docked in 10 days, including painting, to start her first deployment as diving support vessel on a wind farm in German Waters starting this Friday.
