Five stages in the lifecycle of an offshore wind farm.

Energy

Offshore energy development is a complex and challenging industry that requires specialized equipment and vessels to operate effectively. 

Pioneering offshore vessels for the future of sustainable energy

The demand for cleaner and more sustainable energy sources has led to a shift from offshore oil and gas towards offshore wind power, which is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. With this shift, the industry also focuses on developing smarter, safer, and greener vessels to support the various stages of offshore energy development, from survey and inspections through installation and construction to operation and maintenance.

Ulstein is a leading designer and builder of offshore vessels designed to meet the challenges of the offshore energy industry. Our vessel designs have advanced technology and innovative features that enable efficient and safe operations in harsh environments.
