Funding Announced For First-In-Class Low-Carbon Installation Vessel For Floating Offshore Wind

The title of this post, is the same as that of this news item from Morek Engineering.

These two paragraphs outline the project.

The UK Government has awarded funding to a consortium led by Morek Engineering to design a new class of low-carbon installation vessel for the floating offshore wind market.

The consortium has won the funding through the UK Government’s Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition based on their proven track record in innovative vessel design and delivery of complex offshore operations. The consortium includes Morek Engineering, Solis Marine Engineering, Tope Ocean, First Marine Solutions and Celtic Sea Power.

Note.

1. The design of the ship certainly seems to tick all the boxes.
2. This is Morek’s web site.

Because of my experience of writing project management systems, I often wonder, whether some of my discarded ideas of the 1980s could be used in the deployment of floating offshore wind.
