Strategic Marine Delivers New StratCat 27 CTV, ‘Phantasy’

Delivery of Phantasy, marks another milestone in Taiwan’s expanding offshore wind support fleet

Strategic Marine, a specialist in aluminium vessel construction, has completed the delivery of the 27-metre Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) Phantasy to International Ocean Group (IOG) in Taiwan, reinforcing its reputation as a reliable vessel partner to the region’s expanding offshore wind industry.

Based on Strategic Marine’s proven StratCat 27 design, developed in collaboration with BMT, the vessel is purpose-built to support offshore wind farm construction, operations, and maintenance activities. The CTV features an optimised hull form for improved seakeeping, manoeuvrability, and operational performance in Taiwan’s offshore operating conditions.

This delivery marks another milestone in Strategic Marine’s ongoing engagement with Taiwan’s offshore wind sector, as the country continues to advance its renewable energy targets. The vessel will support the safe and efficient transfer of technicians and crew to offshore wind sites, contributing to long-term operational readiness and sustainability objectives.

The milestone delivery also marks the 8th SC27 class of vessel to be deployed in the region, further solidifying its testament of the quality, reliability and functionality of its class.

Mr. Chan Eng Yew, Chief Executive Officer of Strategic Marine, said, “We are pleased to deliver the StratCat 27 Crew Transfer Vessel to a Taiwanese company in Taiwan. This project demonstrates our ability to deliver reliable, high-performance vessels that are tailored to regional requirements and support the continued growth of offshore wind across Asia.”
