Offshore wind foes may be hoping for a construction vessel shortage to throttle down the pace of development, but Maersk has a solution.
“Hold my beer” is the message that the Danish firm Maersk Supply Service is sending to the global offshore wind industry, which is beginning to feel the impact of a shortage in working vessels. The shortage is reportedly beginning to slow down the pace of offshore wind development, but not for long. Maersk’s solution is a new concept that deploys purpose-built systems to put more wind turbines into the water, more quickly, and they are targeting the US wind industry for the first run.
More to the point, Goldberg’s drawings have challenged generations of STEM students to push the boundaries of machine design. Whether or not some of those students graduated into maritime engineering is an open question. The WIV does not incorporate chain reactions, but it is designed to enable offshore wind components to transition seamlessly from the feeder fleet to the WIV, and from there into the water.
“The specialized solution aims to open access to a greater number of U.S. ports logistically,” Maerks explains. The devil is in the implementation and enforcement details, but Maersk Supply Service does take the first step, which is to articulate a specific set of principles under its “Diversity & Inclusion Policy.”“At Maersk Supply Service , we believe that working to create a more diverse and inclusive organisation will benefit our business,” they state.
