Rovco has chartered the 74-meter MV Patriot for its specialist fleet, joining the company’s existing two site characterization vessels, with the British company saying it had done so to increase its subsea capabilities.
The company says the vessel consolidates the company’s site clearance ability, including debris and boulder removal and unexploded ordnance navigation.
“Expanding our fleet of vessels means we can support more stages in offshore wind, from survey stage right through to decommissioning,” says Brian Allen, CEO at Rovco. “By accelerating timelines and bringing down costs throughout the lifecycle of an asset, we can help change the economics of offshore wind and accelerate progress towards the U.K.’s 50 GW by 2030 target.”
Rovco will take delivery of the vessel at the end of this month for a three-year period, with an option to extend the agreement by two years.
