In Depth: Rebranding of Offshore Wind Services underway
The transition of Offshore Wind Services to Acta Marine Wind Services is underway in Den Helder and Brightlingsea. The Damen 2610 and 2008 Offshore Wielingen and Offshore Waddenzee were painted at the Teerenstra painting facility in Den Helder.
The Offshore Phantom was painted in IJmuiden while the crew of the Offshore Provider, based in Brightlingsea in the United Kingdom, took matters into their own hands and began preparing the vessel for painting as well. In March 2015, Acta Marine acquired Offshore Wind Services BV, which now in conjunction with the walk-to-work vessel Acta Orion forms the core of the new venture Acta Marine Wind Services. Workships Contractors BV of Rotterdam have been retained by Acta Marine as technical and crew managers for the Offshore Wind Services fleet.
Acta Marine Wind Services is currently supporting the construction of Luchterduin Offshore Wind Farm and will be very active with the Gemini project. The eleven vessels of Acta Marine Wind Services are working on the following projects: Eneco Luchterduinen Offhsore Wind Farm, Eneco Prisesamaila Wind Park, Gunfleet Sands, Thanet & Kentish Flats, Siemens Major projects on Lynn & Inner Dowsing and Walney 1, North Hoyle and supporting and gas platform in the Irish Sea.
