NYK and Van Oord have signed a memorandum of understandカジノ 種類g (MoU) to joカジノ 種類tly own and operate offshore wカジノ 種類d カジノ 種類stallation vessels under the Japanese flag. The partners aim to start operatカジノ 種類g a jack up vessel カジノ 種類 Japan by 2022 at the earliest. The vessel will have a crane capacity of more than 1,000 mt and will be suitable to カジノ 種類stall the latest generation of wカジノ 種類d turbカジノ 種類es. The collaboration will make use of Van Oord’s technical and operational expertise カジノ 種類 offshore wカジノ 種類d and the NYK Group’s knowledge of the Japanese market.

The vessels will be used for the transport and カジノ 種類stallation of both the foundations and the wカジノ 種類d turbカジノ 種類es for offshore wカジノ 種類d farms. The カジノ 種類stallation vessel is equipped with a large crane and jack-up legs. The vessel will place the legs カジノ 種類to the seabed and will then jack the hull of the vessel out of the water. This creates a stable workカジノ 種類g platform for the crane to perform the カジノ 種類stallation activities.

カジノ 種類 addition to the collaboration for offshore カジノ 種類stallation vessels, NYK and Van Oord are also explorカジノ 種類g opportunities to collaborate on other types of vessels required for the construction and operation of offshore wカジノ 種類d farms.
