DUDGEON OFFSHORE WINDFARM
The Dudgeon offshore windfarm is an exciting GBP 1.5 billion project that will harness offshore wind to power more than 410,000 UK homes. This 402MW offshore windfarm, to be located some 20 miles off the North Norfolk coast, will be developed and operated by Statoil and should start generating electricity in early 2017.
Contracts were signed in a ceremony held in Bergen, Norway last month, which was attended by MPI Workboats’ General Manager, Leslie Robertson.
MPI SNOWBALL AND MPI NAPOLEON
The newest additions to the Workboats fleet, BV-Class 22m vessels MPI Snowball and MPI Napoleon, are excellent, all-round vessels. This versatility, combined with the positive and flexible attitude of the MPIW team, were major factors in securing these contracts.
The company is confident that their vessels will provide a valuable contribution to the project and wish both vessels and their crews safe and successful operations.
PIONEERS
MPI Offshore, based in Stokesley (UK) and Breskens (the Netherlands), has been pioneering the offshore wind-turbine- installation business since 2003, when the first dedicated wind- turbine-installation vessel, MPI Resolution, was delivered. During the past 12 years MPI has been involved in numerous windfarm construction projects in nearly all countries around the North and Baltic Seas.
DEDICATED VESSELS
MPI operates four dedicated wind-turbine-installation vessels, as well as a fleet of 14 workboats. In addition, MPI provides a range of engineering, consulting, manpower and equipment rental services.
The company operates a fleet of 14 specialised workboats in various sizes, configured for crew transfers and survey duties, including subsea-support duties.
