Cadeler has signed two contracts with undisclosed clients for the utilisation of its second M-class wind installation vessel, Wind Mover .
The vessel, currently under construction at Hanwha Ocean shipyard, will support operations and maintenance (O&M) activities, along with potential installation work, in Europe.
The contracts, which are part of a combined agreement, will cover the entire period from Wind Mover ‘s arrival in Europe following its delivery from the shipyard up until the vessel’s next scheduled installation project, said Cadeler.
The total estimated contract value is up to EUR 75 million, depending on the final delivery and redelivery date of the vessel and the scope of work, which may include both O&M and installation services.
In June 2024, Cadeler signed a firm contract with Inch Cape Offshore Limited, a joint venture between Red Rock Power and ESB, for the installation of 72 Vestas 15 MW wind turbines at the 1.1 GW offshore wind farm in Scotland.
The company plans to utilise one of its two M-class installation vessels for the execution of this work. Recently, the developers reached the final investment decision on the Inch Cape offshore wind farm, which is expected to be completed in 2027.
