Dutch offshore access provider Ampelmann has secured five contracts for eight projects in the Asia Pacific, five of which are in offshore wind.
All contracts were signed in the first quarter of 2021 and consist of operations in different offshore segments and in several countries, with various Ampelmann systems to be used.
One of the projects will use the Ampelmann E1000 system to provide safe offshore access for personnel and cargo in the construction phase of an offshore wind farm off the coast of Taiwan.
It is the first deployment of the E1000 in the offshore wind industry in the Asia Pacific region.
For the other four projects in offshore wind off Taiwan Ampelmann will supply an A-type system.
Amplemann business developer Ramesh Namasivayam said: “Securing these projects in the renewables market marks a turning point for the APAC region, as operations in the region used to be solely in Oil & Gas.”
He said that he and his team welcome the shift towards the renewables sector and are pleased to be able to support it. “This move requires the effort of our whole team and inspires us to get involved in many more projects in the region.”
