ACI is excited to announce Hamburg, Germany as the host city for the 4th Operating Specialist Wind Vesels Summit, being held on  27th & 28th September 2017

The demand for renewable energy forms keeps growing & European market is constantly investing in a variety of renewable energy forms including offshore wind energy. The investments into the industry  support the growth of windfarms and wind turbines.

The increase in size of wind farms, size of turbines and support structures calls for a specialised fleet of vessels to install and service these wind farms and the need to transfer both equipment and manpower in a safe and efficient manner has led to demand for tougher health & safety guidelines and industry wide debate on how best to operate to increase ROI for wind vessel operators.

This edition of the summit will give in-depth analysis on operational techniques used within this specialised area, give detail on developments in safety management for the vessels and CTVs, provide direct feedback from the vessel operators and the windfarm developers on projects, as well as key insights into design features and equipment for operations, maintenance, installation and construction of wind farms.
