Offshore heavy lifting: Why use power, if you have balance?

The offshore wind industry is growing significantly and is moving towards larger wind turbine sizes and deeper water. This causes a rising demand for alternative installation methods besides the well-known and most commonly used jack-up vessels. One of the alternatives is installation by means of floating crane vessels. Next to multiple advantages, floating installation of offshore wind farms can also be challenging and requires innovative solutions to de-risk the technology and reduce costs.
