CBED scores new SOV contract

Danish offshore accommodation specialist CBED has timed the market right with a new contract for its recently acquired service operational vessel.

The Maonjasa Holding subsidiary has secured employment for the 2017-built Wind Creation, following the fixture for the sister vessel Wind Evolution earlier this year. Both SOVs were bought from Dutch shipowner Vroon end-2023.

The latest contract, which will see the company’s fleet now fully booked for the rest of the year, is with Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy for the commissioning of an offshore wind farm in the Netherlands. The project is set to start at the end of the second quarter.

CBED recently took delivery of the Wind Creation and will have the SOV in drydock during May for a new permanent gangway setup with an operational level as high as 32 m, which the company said would be “an important factor in setting CBED apart from our competitors in the market”.
