DEME is proud to announce a major milestone in the construction of its new wind turbine installation vessel Norse Wind. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks to the excellent collaboration between the shipyard and DEME\u2019s onsite team, the vessel successfully departed from CIMC Raffles in Yantai, China, at the end of August to begin her sea trials.<\/p>\n

These trials, taking place in the Yellow Sea, include speed trials, endurance tests, unmanned machinery trials and DP2 trials. Around twenty DEME colleagues are on board to support this critical phase.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, the main crane load test is scheduled to follow once the vessel returns to port. Other recent achievements include the successful completion of the full-height jacking trial, final welding of the tower grillage and blade rack substructure, and ongoing machining of the tower flanges.<\/p>\n

The sea trials are proceeding exactly as scheduled, marking a significant step toward the vessel\u2019s final delivery, which is planned for Q4 2025. We are extremely proud of the progress made and thank the entire DEME team for their dedication to ensuring a safe and timely delivery of this state-of-the-art wind turbine installation vessel.<\/p>\n
