Nortek has announced the launch of the upgraded Aquadopp and AWAC range of ADCPs. The latest versions of these instruments build on already existing capabilities loved by users for decades, and offer sleek user-friendly design, enhanced performance and future-proof internal components.
VARD is pleased to announce it has signed a contract with Navigare Capital Partners, in close corporation with Norwind Offshore, for the design and construction of one tailor-made Commissioning Service Operation Vessel (CSOV). The parties have also agreed on new options for two additional vessels.
TDI-Brooks' latest dynamic positioning (DP) vessel, the RV NAUTILUS, has reached the shores of the East Coast of the United States. The DP2 vessel RV NAUTILUS from TDI-Brooks, with a length of 75 meters and built in 2000, arrived at the US East Coast on March 3, 2024. After undergoing a 6-month retrofit in Las Palmas, the vessel will provide support for offshore wind projects and various other subsea needs. It is equipped with advanced technology, including a Geomil Manta-200 CPT that can be deployed through the mid-ship moonpool of NAUTILUS. This system can penetrate the soil up to 40-50 meters, depending on its composition, to determine the soil's exact makeup. This data is crucial for identifying the best location and design for offshore developments like wind farms. The offshore renewable energy sector is expanding rapidly, resulting in a high demand for TDI's services on both the US East and West Coasts.
