WS-150
— selected as the 1st WindSpider unit to be built, with a lifting capacity of 150t, customized for blade and nacelle component replacement on +13MW wind turbines offshore
Technical Data
Lifting capacity
150t
Lifting height
+200m
- Combined with an older jack-up, WS-150 System is significantly cheaper compared to the newest high-spec WTIVs
- Extends life of older and less expensive jack-ups, not able to service turbines with hub heights above 140m without the WS-150 System
- By offering an alternative to new WTIVs with low availability & occupied with long term installation work, WS-150 reduces cost caused by loss of production
- Improved operational weather window
- By utilizing existing jack-up resources, WS-150 promotes responsible choices and offers sustainable solutions
- Also compatible with existing vessels and barges, providing a cost-efficient alternative to new purpose-built vessels
- By providing affordable & timely repairs, WS-150 improves operability of wind parks, increasing green energy production and lowering the LCOE
