Transport vessel for turbines
A roll-on-roll off-loading (ro-ro) ship will fulfill the needs for cost effective transportation of the large nacelles used in Siemens direct drive offshore wind turbines. The 141 m long vessel can carry multiple 8 MW nacelles per trip and will connect Siemens coming manufacturing site in Cuxhaven, Germany with installation harbours in the North and Baltic Seas. The vessel was rebuilt for its new purpose at Holland Shipyard in Hardinxveld-Giessendam in the Netherlands.
