Semco Maritime has completed its installation of a 422-tonne crane boom aboard wind farm installation vessel Pacific Osprey.
Commissioned by Swire Blue Ocean, Semco enabled Pacific Osprey to expand its capacity and allow for handling of next generation wind turbine generators.
Semco Maritime delivered on time after completing the heaviest lift ever at the port of Esbjerg, said the firm in a statement.
Senior project manager at Semco Maritime’s rig projects division Søren Hede-Jensen said: “This has been an exciting project characterised by great collaboration with Swire Blue Ocean and a range of subcontractors with an uncompromising focus on safety and meticulous planning.”
Hede-Jensen added: “We unloaded the 115-metre-long crane boom on the quayside to perform electrical installations and tests before completing a complex twin-lift with two heavy shore cranes and mounting the crane on Pacific Osprey for the final load tests.”
