Seacat Magic Joins OESV Fleet At Greater Gabbard Offshore Wind Farm
Class leading offshore energy support vessel (OESV) operator Seacat Services (Seacat) has today announced that it has signed a long-term charter for catamaran Seacat Magic with Greater Gabbard Offshore Wind Farm Ltd.
Seacat Magic will support Operations & Maintenance (O&M) activity for the Greater Gabbard service team working at the 504MW wind farm. She joins sister vessel Seacat Freedom, which was first deployed to the site in 2017.
Safely capitalising on weather windows and favourable on-site conditions is key to effective crew and equipment transfers that keep maintenance schedules on track at sites such as Greater Gabbard. Seacat’s OESVs including Magic and Freedom are therefore optimised to maximise safety and technical availability for the wind farm operator and service teams during these periods – while ensuring that technicians reach turbines and other infrastructure quickly and comfortably.
