Photo of the Day: MPI Enterprise Shows Her Vroon Colours ahead of Nordsee One Work

February 7, 2017

MPI Offshore’s jack-up vessel MPI Enterprise has recently undergone her periodic drydocking in Hamburg prior to heading out to install Senvion wind turbines on the 322MW Nordsee One offshore wind farm.

During her stay in dock, she was painted in Vroon red and labelled with Vroon’s white letter V.

In the next couple of weeks, MPI Enterprise will be mobilised to commence the turbine installation on the 322MW Nordsee One offshore wind farm in the German part of the North Sea.

The vessel will transport turbine components from the Buss Orange Blue Terminal in Eemshaven, The Netherlands, and install all 54 Senvion 6.2M-126 turbines at the 41-square-kilometre site located some 40 kilometres north of Juist Island.

Nordsee One, owned by Northland Power Inc. (85%) and RWE International SE (15%), is expected to be commissioned in the second half of 2017.

MPI Offshore, part of Vroon, operates a fleet of four wind turbine installation vessels, including MPI Enterprise, MPI Resolution, MPI Adventure and MPI Discovery.
