The company did not reveal the name of the wind farm project the vessel will be servicing.

Built in 2001 and converted in 2005, Skandi Neptune (MT 6016 design) is an ROV construction support vessel, equipped with a heavy duty heave compensated 250t crane along with two 3000m rated WROVs. It has the capacity of accommodating 106 persons.

In August, DOF Subsea also won the contract for Skandi Constructor to support Siemens on the 336MW Galloper offshore wind farm in the UK, which includes using the vessel until the end of the year.

Skandi Constructor is a 120m long, DP3 offshore support vessel capable of accommodating up to 100 persons on board.
