SMST has secured a contract with Damen Shipyards to deliver two sets of mission equipment for two newbuild construction service operation vessels (CSOVs) for Windcat Offshore.
The Elevation Series CSOVs have been designed by Damen Shipyards in cooperation with Windcat and CMB.TECH.
The SMST mission equipment that will be in operation on board the CSOVs from 2025 includes a 10 tonne 3D motion compensated crane.
“SMST has been closely involved in the design of the vessels, which has enabled us to optimally integrate our equipment.
“This has resulted in the most efficient and safest logistic solution for the CSOVs, and it has also created an optimal construction process for the equipment on board”, said Menno de Jong, Sales Manager at SMST.
The Elevation Series vessels are powered by hydrogen.
“We are committed to building sustainable vessels and we believe with their offshore systems on board, SMST can support us in achieving this goal”, said Joost van der Weiden, Sales Manager Benelux at Damen Shipyards.
