German offshore wind service provider Windea Offshore has teamed up with marine data acquisition specialist Subsea Europe Services to provide hydrographic survey and underwater inspection technology to the European sector.
The partnership will see the duo work to further develop and optimise autonomous surface and subsea vehicles in Subsea Europe Services’ fleet and integrate them into existing and future concepts to offer added value to charterers of crew transfer and service operation vessels.
Windea Offshore is a Hamburg-based joint venture of Bernhard Schulte Offshore, Buss Offshore Solutions and EMS Maritime Offshore, which operates a growing fleet of CTVs and SOVs.
“The expansion of the European offshore wind sector demands a more streamlined approach to marine data acquisition to optimise operations and reduce costs during every stage of a wind farm’s lifecycle. In this context we are confident that the technical approach of Subsea Europe Services combined with our offshore wind related know-how will provide significant benefits to our clients within the industry,” said Caspar Spreter, managing director at Windea Offshore.
