VENTUS Marine Co, a joint venture between Singapore's PSA Marine (Pte) Ltd and Taiwan's Ta Tong Marine Group, has taken delivery of the first service accommodation transfer vessel (SATV) in the world, a 36-metre purpose-built ship that is capable of staying offshore for at least seven days.
The new SATV offers 12 single cabin accommodation with ensuite bathrooms and media entertainment for technicians to live onboard comfortably, without requiring daily port calls.
PSA Marine managing director Peter Chew said: "We are delighted that our newly commissioned 35-metre SATV is now servicing Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy in Taiwan. The SATV is a game-changer in the logistics of harnessing offshore wind energy.
"It combines both offshore accommodation for technicians, with a fast and efficient vessel that can transfer technicians directly onto an offshore wind turbine without the need for a complicated motion compensated gangway system.
"We are also looking forward to expanding further into this market together with our strong Taiwanese local partner, Ta Tong Marine, and our experienced European partner, Njord Offshore."
Said Ta Tong Marine chairman Lin Hrong-Nain: "The innovative concept has been successfully delivered and we are now providing its services to the first offshore wind farm in Taiwan. Together with our experienced and reliable partners, PSA Marine and Njord Offshore, we are committed and confident to contribute to the growing offshore wind market in Taiwan."
On charter, the Ventus Formosa provides operations and maintenance support for the Formosa 1 offshore wind farm project in Taiwan.
