German Renewable Shipbrokers is bringing a British freight ferry as an accommodation vessel into the offshore renewables market.

“We’re proud of being the competent partner for all parties in this project”, GRS Managing Partner Matthias Mroß is pleased to say.

Up to 150 berths for offshore technicians at the wind farm “Nordsee-Ost” were provided by the freight ferry “European Seaway”. For this project the vessel operator, the British shipping company P&O Offshore Energy Ltd, carried out significant modifications in just a few weeks.

The major advantage being cited by GRS of the modified ferry is the high quantity of accommodation and the significant loading space of 1,900 lane meters, each of 3 meters width.
There is also the advantage of being able to change materials, containers and bunkers via its special bow and side access arrangements. All loading could be done very quickly during its regular visits to Cuxhaven for crew changes.

For this project GRS brought both parties, ship owner and charterer, together and facilitated all negotiations. “We have ensured fast and successful negotiations to a high satisfaction of all parties. Furthermore we were in close contact with the vessel owner and charterer for the whole charter period, guaranteeing a smooth process”, adds Mroß. “Keeping all parties satisfied is our intention – and we succeeded“.
