Jostein Alendal also emphasized that the installation of batteries for electric propulsion on the Deep Cygnus will be another step in the right direction regarding the company’s emission reduction goals.
Thus, the contract signed by Reach Subsea with the major renewable energy company is an important milestone for the Norwegian company, which is seeking to consolidate its position in the subsea services market.
With solid experience in the renewables segment, the company has distinguished itself for its expertise in providing services related to offshore wind energy.
Additionally, the signing of the contract reinforces Reach Subsea’s strategy to expand its capacity of high-quality vessels for the coming years, aiming to meet the growing demand for its services.
With the long-term charter of the Deep Cygnus, the company is preparing to establish itself as one of the leading companies in offshore support services.
The offshore wind energy market is the major bet of the entire global energy segment, and Reach Subsea is preparing the Deep Cygnus platform for an even greater demand in the future.
