ESBJERG, Denmark —Cadeler has commissioned Semco Maritime to perform modifications related to an upgrade of main crane capacity on two O-class wind farm installation vessels.
Previously Semco Maritime fitted new and extended crane booms on both vessels.
Its latest work scope covers planning and supplier coordination, fabrication and installation of a new boom rest, reinforcement of the crane pedestal, and various electrical and mechanical upgrades during installation of the new cranes supplied by GustoMSC.
Fabrication of about 300 t of steel structures will start shortly, with installations to follow on both vessels in Rotterdam over a five-month period starting in late 2023.
