This configuration enables superior performance in dynamic positioning (DP) maneuvers, key to offshore operations. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/sbm-offshore-to-operate-fpso-granmorgu-after-signing-contract-with-totalenergies\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/sbm-offshore-operara-el-fpso-granmorgu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">offshore operations<\/a><\/strong> in adverse weather conditions. The vessel also features hybrid propulsion with batteries and is ready to operate on methanol, which significantly reduces its carbon footprint.  <\/p>\n\n<p>With a length of 89.6 meters and beam of 19.2 meters, the Windea Curie offers <strong>comfortable accommodation for up to 132 people,<\/strong> including window cabins for offshore personnel. Among its equipment are an adjustable and motion-compensated central gangway, a personnel elevator and a 3D technology crane capable of lifting up to 5 tons in open sea. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commitment to European energy infrastructure<\/h2>\n\n<p>The collaboration between BSO and TenneT is strengthened with the addition of this new vessel, which facilitates access to offshore platforms in the North Sea. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/kci-to-boost-german-wind-power-connection-with-hvdc-platform-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/kci-disenara-plataformas-hvdc-para-tennet\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">offshore platforms in the North Sea<\/a><\/strong>. Its improved operability responds to the growing demand for logistics solutions for offshore wind energy projects. <\/p>\n\n<p>The Windea Curie is BSO&#8217;s fourth vessel with advanced offshore maintenance and support capabilities. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/enermech-secures-lifting-contract-for-fpso-anasuria-in-the-north-sea\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/enermech-servicios-de-izaje-en-fpso-anasuria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">offshore maintenance and support<\/a><\/strong>. Its twin will be delivered in 2025, further expanding the company&#8217;s service offering in the wind and oil and gas segments. <\/p>\n\n<p>As part of BSO&#8217;s tradition of honoring scientific figures, this vessel is named after Marie Curie, <strong>noted for her contribution to physics and chemistry<\/strong>.
