As the world makes strides toward sustainable energy, offshore wind farms have emerged as one of the most promising sources of clean power. The UK, with its vast coastline and favourable wind conditions, has become a global leader in offshore wind energy generation. But behind the scenes, a crucial component that keeps these wind farms operational is wind farm support boats.
Wind farm support boats play an indispensable role in ensuring the smooth operation and maintenance of offshore wind turbines. From transporting technicians and equipment to servicing turbines and aiding in emergency response.
Commercial Rib Charter operate 48 vessels ranging from 9m to 20m and are able to offer a variety of services to support the offshore wind industry such as:
CRC Crew Transfer Vessels (CTVs): Fast, nimble vessels that can transfer technicians and maintenance crews from the shore to the turbines. The vessels are designed to operate in challenging sea conditions and we have several shallow draft vessels capable of operating in as little as 0.6m of water.
Jack-Up Barge Crew Transfers: Our lightweight vessels are equipped with modular push on bows which are adaptable for different ladders making them the perfect solution for transferring crew and equipment safely and reliably to and from jack-up barges in shallow water or intertidal zones.
Amphibious Vessels: CRC operate a fleet of amphibious vessels to support projects in intertidal areas of windfarms ensuring operations can continue to operate even in the toughest conditions.
