Edda Wind officially took delivery of the “Austri Enabler”, the new service vessel for offshore wind farms. It was built by the Gondan shipyard in Spain, a vessel that represents the company’s sustainability strategy and the fourth vessel in a series of sister ships designed for emission-free operations.
The technology and integration of the Austri Enabler vessel
This vessel is prepared to operate with a hydrogen-based propulsion system using LOHC(liquid organic hydride) technology, allowing it to perform its missions with minimal environmental impact.
Upon delivery, the vessel secured a 12-month contract with the possibility of extension. In addition, it is expected to start operations in UK waters during the third quarter of 2025, serving as a logistics platform for the technicians in charge of the start-up and maintenance of offshore wind turbines.
This new vessel joins its predecessors Nordri, Sudri y Vestri Enabler, completing a family of highly specialized CSOVs. All share a design focused on operational efficiency, with a length of 88.3 meters and capacity for 120 people.
Based in Norway, Edda Wind is a reference in maritime services for offshore wind energy. It has a growing fleet that is designed to align with global climate goals, implementing green propulsion technologies, with advanced logistics solutions to support the energy transition.
