KONGSBERG, Norway – Keppel AmFELS has contracted Kongsberg Maritime to provide a technology package for Dominion Energy’s wind turbine installation vessel Charybdis.
Kongsberg Maritime Integrated Solution for wind turbine installation vessels combines motion control, propulsion, and dynamic positioning functionalities to maintain operability in all conditions.
The company’s thrusters are expected to secure optimized performance both for transit, manoeuvring and dynamic positioning, with power supplied by six Bergen diesel engines. Mooring and line handling is facilitated by a deck machinery package.
Monitoring and control of the KM components will be managed by a K-Chief 700 marine automation system, and the delivery also includes a large telecommunications package. The electrical system will use the company’s energy solutions.
