Refit and repair provider Diverse Marine Ltd has signed a modification and upcycling contract with an offshore wind crew transfer vessel (CTV) service provider Turner Iceni Ltd. for the modification and upcycling of \u2018Iceni Courage\u2019 following a competitive tender process.<\/p>\n
According to the UK-based naval architect, the Iceni Courage is a 15m crew transfer vessel built in the yard back in 2009.<\/p>\n
The dynamic offshore wind sector has developed over the last decade with a requirement for larger, faster and more efficient craft so the time had come for the vessel\u2019s owners to consider a sale or repurposing of the vessel out of the offshore wind industry.<\/p>\n
However, following the success of the \u2018MCS Maestro\u2019 to \u2018Iceni Warrior\u2019 and \u2018MPI Don Quixote\u2019 to \u2018Iceni Revenge\u2019 upcycling and life extension refits carried out early in 2019, a similar refit had to be considered.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Iceni Courage\u2019 life extension project includes stretching the hull, deck and superstructure by 3.6m, repowering the vessel to Volvo Penta IPS900, relocation and replacement of the ships generator, relocation of the fresh water and grey water tanks with all new plumbing, cutting in a forward side door to the saloon, cutting in an additional third crew position on the bridge and full refit of the interior.<\/p>\n
The refit will include the \u2018Iceni Gen 3\u2019 upgrades with new, lighter and more accommodating linings, all new heads compartment, all new galley with modern appliances and all new windows and doors. In addition, the vessel is to be repainted from top to bottom.<\/p>\n
