Lamprell has signed an agreement with Dong Fang Offshore (DFO) for a newbuild NG-9000X wind turbine installation and maintenance vessel.

In a statement, Lamprell said the newbuild vessel will support offshore wind activities in the Asia Pacific region and will be designed to accommodate the latest generation of turbines.

The GustoMSC-designed NG-9000X vessel will be built in compliance with Taiwanese shipping law. It will feature a heavy-lift crane, DP-2 positioning, legs with spud cans for challenging conditions, and accommodation quarters.

“This MOU reflects our commitment to supporting the global energy transition using the capabilities of our existing facilities and skilled workforce,” Lamprell CEO Ian Prescott said.

Polin Chen, CEO of DFO, also said the deal “demonstrates the capability and willingness of the international supply chain to step up to deliver high-quality, internationally competitive solutions, ensuring that Taiwan has fit-for-purpose vessels to install and maintain the growing fleet of wind turbines.”
