The order consists of two 23m aluminium catamarans and two 26m aluminium catamarans.

CWind currently manages a fleet of 22 dedicated offshore wind crew transfer vessels but this is the first time the company has ordered aluminium vessels.

Peter Jorgensen, Managing Director CWind, said: “The new larger vessels will boost our fleet’s capability and thus enhance our ability to serve our clients’ requirements. In ordering these vessels we took a strategic decision to diversify our fleet and thus be able to offer a wider range of options to the market as the industry grows.”
