Sweden-headquartered Northern Offshore Services (NOS) is providing vessels for supporting Orsted’s wind farms off the west coast of the UK.
NOS will provide crew transfer vessel (CTV) support to Orsted’s UK West Coast Hub, totalling 1.8GW of capacity, through provision of seven CTVs over the next three years.
The first vessels will start in beginning of 2021 and will be accompanied by more vessels gradually until the summer.
The vessels will operate on Walney, Walney Extension, West of Duddon Sands, Barrow, Burbo Bank and Burbo Bank Extension offshore wind farms, using Orsted’s Barrow and Liverpool operations sites as base ports.
