Acta Marine’s walk to work construction support vessel Acta Orion is carrying out accommodation and walk to work duties for Siemens on Dong’s offshore wind farm Race Bank. Siemens is currently installing and commissioning 91 six MW turbines, planned to be completed before end of the year. Acta Orion active on this project since May 2017 will be occupied until mid-November 2017.

The vessel is used by Siemens to accommodate up to 60 technicians carrying out commissioning and testing duties as well as performing O&M duties on the installed turbines. The vessel is therefore following in the wake of the installation jack-up vessel Sea Installer and keeping up with its pace to complete the T&C scope on time. Last week the installation of one quarter of total number of turbines was completed.

Operating globally, Acta Marine is a marine support provider with a versatile fleet of over 40 vessels.
