Rovco is to charter the VOS Star vessel from Vroon to support delivery of its offshore wind farm work.
The 68-metre long DP2 multi-purpose support vessel will support Rovco’s growing number of secured offshore wind campaigns throughout 2022, including the provision of subsea survey solutions on operational projects in UK and Dutch waters.
Rovco will mobilise a dedicated and experienced offshore team, to operate its Seaeye Leopard Work Class ROV systems, fitted with technology powered by its sister company Vaarst.
The team will perform a multitude of detailed subsea survey, maintenance and repair tasks, on a 24-hour basis, with a wide array of cable tracking and ROV tooling available, including Rovco’s unique intelligent data collection system, SubSLAM X2.
Rovco’s Seaeye Leopard ROVs, combined with the DP2 VOS Star, will allow safe and efficient project delivery even during harsh weather conditions increasing the window of opportunity and reducing downtime, the company said.
Rovco managing director Simon Miller said; “With the charter of the VOS Star we are in an excellent position to successfully deliver our booked projects this year and offer availability with a very capable warm spread to serve additional client needs to support emergent works or newly realised scopes.
“We are excited to forge a new relationship with Vroon, expanding our fleet and continuing to support the energy sector with a focus on transition to renewable sources of power.”
Vroon Offshore Services managing director Niek Spiljard said; “We are happy to support the activities of Rovco with our VOS Star.
“It is an exciting time to start a new relationship with a major provider of subsea and hydrographic survey solutions. We look forward to working together and contributing to some successful campaigns.”
