Norwind Offshore has acquired six high-spec commissioning service operation vessels from Edda Wind, doubling its fleet and strengthening its offshore wind vessel capacity.

The transaction was completed with Navigare Capital Partners and forms part of Norwind Offshore’s growth strategy in offshore wind. The vessels have either been delivered within the past year or are in the final stage of delivery.

The CSOVs use Vard 4 25 and SALT 0217 designs and are built to support offshore wind projects worldwide. A skilled crew team will also transfer with the vessels, supporting a smooth handover and continued operational performance.

Svein Leon Aure, Chief Executive Officer of Norwind Offshore, said the deal improves the company’s readiness and strengthens its ability to serve customers and the wider offshore wind market.

Stig Duus Enslev, founding partner of Navigare Capital, said the acquisition is the largest transaction completed by the firm and reflects its continued confidence in offshore wind.
