Nexra, Cadeler’s dedicated offshore wind service platform, has secured a firm operations and maintenance contract in Japan.

The campaign is scheduled to start in spring 2026 and is expected to last about 1–2 months. The contract value was not disclosed.

The work will be carried out by Wind Zaratan, which will mobilise to Japan after completing scheduled maintenance and upgrades in Singapore.

Jacob Gregersen, Chief Growth Officer at Cadeler, said Wind Zaratan is being prepared and positioned in the region, allowing a direct transition from yard stay to project execution. He added that the company’s teams are used to working within local frameworks, helping deliver efficient service support while minimising downtime for operating assets.

Nexra supports the operational phase of offshore wind farms. As the installed base of large-scale turbines continues to grow, demand is increasing for major component exchange and complex offshore maintenance. Nexra combines technical expertise with a flexible vessel portfolio to provide lifecycle support, helping clients safeguard performance, extend asset life and optimise availability.

With this contract, Nexra continues to support offshore wind operators across Asia-Pacific.
