Uptime International has entered into three new contracts for motion compensated gangways during summertime.
One of the involved companies in this transactions is the Dutch company C-bed.
C-bed will mount the gangway inclusive a stepless adjustable pedestal on their new build accommodation vessel “M/S Wind Innovation” which is customized to operate as walk to work vessel in windfarms. “M/S Wind Innovation” will be ready for Siemens charter in the wind farm Gemini in February 2016.
“We can see that it gives a good synergy effect on development and learning curve when windpark owners, vessel/equipment designers, charterers and vessel owners/operators are teaming up. Such cooperation has now made it possible for us to transport cargo from cargo store under deck up to and through our Uptime motion compensated gangway.
“The fact that this is our fifth contract for dedicated wind farm vessels to be used with forefront and major companies in the renewable industry and that we keep on signing Oil & Gass contracts gives us a vote of confidence and a trigger to stretch for even further development,” says Sales & Marketing Director Svein Ove Haugen .
