    Three Seismic Research Support Vessels for Rederij Groen

    Maaskant Shipyards Stellendam has delivered 7-Oceans, a highly specialized support vessel, to Rederij Groen in the Netherlands. The vessel will be used under charter by Dolphin Geophysical.

    The vessel is one of three in a series designed to support seismic research operations, Damen Shipyards, parent company of Maaskant, said in a statement. Dolphin Geophysical opted for a 35-meter design from Vestvaerftet in Denmark with an ICE-class rating to operate in Arctic waters.

    “This design is even closer to a fishing vessel compared to the two 40-meter new-builds Maaskant delivered to Rederij Groen last year,” a Damen spokesman said.

    Two Veth azimuth stern drives were installed for optimum maneuverability. Three Caterpillar C18 generator sets power the vessel. 7-Oceans can accommodate a crew of six with extra capacity for eight service crew.

    Maaskant will deliver the second vessel in October, followed by the third in March 2015.

    TAG Energy Solutions ships first 650-ton monopiles

    TAG Energy Solutions has sent the first four monopiles and transition pieces to the US$1.2 billion Humber Gateway, an E.ON offshore wind farm under construction in British waters of the North Sea.

    Each monopile measures 60 meters long and weighs 650 tons. The 12 remaining foundations will ship before the end of August, TAG said in a statement.

    TAG manufactured the foundations at its tubular production facility on the River Tees and loaded them by SPMT and crane to a waiting barge at the company’s wet dock facility. The barge was then taken down the River Tees where it met the MPI Discovery, which will be used to install the components.

    When completed in the spring of 2015, Humber Gatweway will consist of 73 turbines and generate 219 megawatts of electricity.

    Van der Vlist’s Russian office has recently received two flight simulaters at its 560-square-meter warehouse.

    The 15-ton simulators were dismantled into 20 pieces each. The largest pieces measure 2.5 meters long, 2 meters wide and 3.5 meters high, Van der Vlist said in a statement.

    The simulators were brought into the St. Petersburg office as part of a project to develop facility’s storage operations. Over the past month, the facility has been home to several MAN TGM fire trucks, which were stored on the 20,000-square-meter secured warehouse while waiting to be delivered to the local fleet.

    Despite these recent influxes of cargo there is still available space on the secured site for storage of machinery or other cargo, short term or long term.

    US$2.5 billion project to generate 1,500 megawatts

    Global Edison will build a US$2.5 billion gas-fired plant in Anambra State, Nigeria.

    The 1,500-megawatt plant will be fueled by gas from the Nigeria’s eastern supply axis. The plant is part of a memorandum of understanding signed between Nigeria and the U.S. Power Africa Initiative. Also included in the agreement is a 70-megawatt solar panel manufacturing plant, which would be the largest in West Africa, the U.S. Diplomatic Mission to Nigeria said in a statement.

    The energy investment will have an enormous impact on Nigeria’s generating capacity.

    “That means if you think of what Nigeria currently is producing, you are talking of 250 per cent per current generation capacity and Power Africa is designed to give two and half times that to the whole of Africa. We appreciate Global Edison for what they are coming to do,” Nigeria’s Minister of Power Chinedu Nebo said at the signing ceremony.

    The initiative aims to add at least 10,000 megawatts of electricity in sub-Saharan African nations, including Nigeria, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia and Tanzania.

    Repairs and renewal to Seajacks Leviathan and Seajacks Kraken have been completed for Seajacks UK by Shipdock Amsterdam, a Damen Shiprepair & Conversion shipyard.

    Work on the two self-propelled jack-up vessels was performed between jobs at North Sea offshore wind and oil & gas installations, Damen said in a statement.

    For Seajacks Leviathan, first its blade racks were cut loose and removed. Next a heli deck was installed, including related drain and firefighting piping, in Shipdock’s 250-meter Panamax dock. The heli deck was prefabricated in Amsterdam by Niron Staal, which is also a subsidiary of the Damen Shiprepair & Conversion. Below deck reinforcements were then installed to support heavier mounts in preparation of lifeboat davits replacement.

    For Seajacks Kraken, Shipdock Amsterdam replaced the vessel’s two lifeboat davit sets. This included installing Niron Staal prefabricated foundations and the four new davits with their powerpack, cable, winch, electricity and hydraulic systems. This was finished off by surveyor-assessed test runs and loads test. The Kraken’s four legs were restored after an initial joint inspection round with the principal’s inspectors.

    In addition to crane tests and crane hook certification update surveys, both Seajack vessels underwent miscellaneous minor steel work and had four new satellite dome platforms installed.

    In June, Seajacks took delivery of its fourth self-propelled jack-up vessel, the Seajacks Hydra. Next year, Seajacks will receive its largest vessel to date, the Seajacks Scylla, which is being built by Samsung Heavy Industries in Korea.
