DEME has taken delivery of its new wind turbine installation vessel Norse Wind at the CIMC Raffles Shipyard. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Designed to install the next generation of offshore wind turbines, the vessel combines advanced technology and sustainable design features to offer unrivalled installation capability.<\/p>\n

Marking another important milestone in DEME\u2019s continued expansion of its offshore installation fleet, Norse Wind reinforces the company\u2019s strong position in the global offshore energy market. Built by CIMC Raffles and designed by GustoMSC, Norse Wind is equipped to install turbines with rotor diameters of more than 300 meters and XXL monopiles weighing up to 3,000 tons. Its 3,200-ton crane enables operation in water depths of up to 70 meters, setting a new standard in lifting capacity, speed and efficiency.<\/p>\n

The construction of Norse Wind was initiated in 2023 by Havfram, the Norwegian offshore wind contractor acquired by DEME in April this year. The vessel was completed on schedule with an excellent quality and safety record. Norse Wind is already contracted for several major offshore wind projects and has a strong pipeline through 2030, underlining DEME\u2019s leading role in constructing the world\u2019s largest wind farms. The vessel is set to commence operations in the first half of 2026, starting with recently secured offshore wind projects in Europe.<\/p>\n

\u201cNorse Wind represents an important step in strengthening DEME\u2019s position as a leading player in offshore wind installation,\u201d said Even Larsen, Business Unit Director Global WTG & O&M at DEME. \u201cThis state-of-the-art vessel enables us to deliver even larger and more complex projects, further enhancing our capabilities. We also acknowledge the excellent collaboration and craftsmanship demonstrated by the CIMC Raffles team throughout construction.\u201d<\/p>\n

The vessel will soon be sporting the well-known \u2018DEME green\u2019 livery. Its sister vessel Norse Energi is scheduled for delivery in early 2026. Together, these vessels will play a key role in delivering some of the largest offshore wind projects in the world in the coming years.<\/p>\n
