OEG Renewables, a division of OEG Energy Group, is pleased to announce the completion of construction and sea trials for Furioso, its newest multi-purpose Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) to enter its global fleet and the award of its first charter. This state-of-the-art vessel will embark on a 5-year charter, supporting operations and maintenance (O&M) activities on offshore wind farms in Germany.
Furioso, which was designed and built in the UK, is the first Brevity Class CTV to enter the market. It was designed by reputed naval architects Chartwell Marine and built and commissioned by OEG Renewables. Tailored to the specific needs of the offshore wind industry, the Brevity class is a high-performance CTV that delivers cost-effective, low-emission support. Its optimised hull form ensures exceptional manoeuvrability and stability, while its spacious interior can accommodate up to 32 personnel in flexible configurations for enhanced comfort during extended offshore stays.
OEG Renewables currently owns and operates a modern fleet of 15 multi-purpose CTV offshore vessels that operate in the UK, Europe and Taiwan supporting offshore wind construction and O&M activities. The recent sale of the 12-year-old 21m Manor Initiative CTV, coinciding with the arrival of the new Furioso CTV, underscores OEG Renewables’ commitment to maintaining a modern fleet capable of meeting the needs of our clients in all offshore wind markets around the world.
Mike James, General Manager (Fleet) at OEG Renewables said: “We are delighted to be adding this highly versatile first of the new Brevity class vessel to the OEG Renewables fleet. Our modern fleet expands OEG Renewables capabilities, integrating with the group’s other service lines to provide an unrivaled suite of services and products to meet our clients’ objectives.”
