175 m Dual-Fuel Hybrid Offshore Wind Turbine Installation Vessel

The Boreas is the largest offshore wind turbine installation vessel of its kind, purpose-built for transport and installation of next generation of wind turbines and foundations up to more than 25 MW.

To handle these huge turbines, the vessel is equipped with a crane, which can lift more than 3,200 t and features a 155 m long boom. And with a jacking deadweight of more than 20,000 t and 7,150 m2 deck area, the jacking capacity and space is state of the art.

The vessel features a dual fuel diesel-electric hybrid propulsion plant capable of running fully on methanol, which in conjunction with a large battery pack and energy recovery from jacking operations drastically reduces its carbon footprint.

Four giant legs measuring 126 m in length, allow the vessel to be jacked up and work on water depths up to 80 m.
