Cadeler’s newbuild offshore turbine installation vessel Wind Peak has been launched at Cosco Shipyard in Qidong, China.
The launching of Wind Peak is a critical milestone that marks the completion of the vessel’s hull, Cadeler said.
It added the vessel was the result of two years of intricate engineering and 18 months of construction with an uncompromising focus on safety and efficiency.
After the launching, the jacking legs and cranes will now be installed onboard alongside various technical installations.
Then, commissioning and testing of all systems will be initiated.
The sea trial is planned for mid-2024 – all ship systems will be tested by Cadeler in close collaboration with the Classification Society.
Wind Peak is scheduled to be handed over to Cadeler in third quarter 2024.
