A Year of Success for Bibby Marine’s WaveMaster Fleet

Bibby Marine announce a fantastic accomplishment for their Bibby WaveMaster fleet – with an outstanding 97% utilisation rat, 2024 has been one of their busiest and most successful to date.

Bibby WaveMaster fleet achieving this record-high utilisation rate is a testament to their operational excellence and the unwavering commitment of our exceptional crew and support teams onshore.

Bibby WaveMaster 1 (BWM1) – earlier this year, BWM1 secured a three-year contract extension with long-standing client TotalEnergies EP Nederland. This contract is set to commence in Q1 2025 and extends up to 238 days of operation annually. Having started the year supporting offshore wind farm construction activities in France, BWM1 will complete the year on charter in Denmark, supporting maintenance activities with an offshore wind farm.

Bibby WaveMaster Horizon (BWMH) – Having successfully completed five-years of service to Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, who have been providing maintenance and service across the HoHe See and Albatross wind farms in the North Sea, BWMH will continue the balance of its ten-year charter with windfarm owner EnBW taking primacy for the next five-years.

Bibby Marine Commercial Director, Kevin Brown said: “This latest milestone not only highlights our efficiency but also underscores the trust and confidence our clients place in us. As we celebrate this phenomenal achievement, we look forward to continuing to provide a trusted service for the offshore energy sector.

“This success is a reflection of our team’s hard work and the strong partnerships we have built with our clients. We are excited about the future and the opportunities that lie ahead. Here’s to a year of remarkable accomplishments and the promise of even greater horizons!”
