Ampelmann Signs Contract for Two E1000 Systems in Taiwan

Ampelmann, a Dutch offshore access provider, has signed a new contract for two E1000 systems to work in Taiwan onboard two multipurpose support vessels to provide accommodation and walk to work services for end client Vestas Taiwan. The E1000 systems have been signed to assist in turbine commissioning. This new contract reaffirms Ampelmann’s position in helping to grow the offshore wind market in Taiwan.

The first E1000 began work in January 2024 and the second E1000 is due to begin work in May 2024. This combination of the E1000 systems and client’s vessels has a proven track record of operating in Taiwan's offshore wind farms since 2022 and has successfully worked through two winter seasons. These latest projects contribute to Taiwan's renewable energy targets and Ampelmann's commitment to these markets.

The E1000 motion compensated system is based off the proven technology of Ampelmann’s E-type system, but with the added capacity to handle cargo of up to 1,000kg. The system is able to compensate for waves up to 4.5m Hs and has the ability to change from people to cargo transfer mode in less than one minute.

“We look forward to working with our client and Vestas Taiwan on both projects. Ampelmann is committed to providing safe access for personnel and cargo for offshore wind projects in Taiwan,” says Ramesh Namasivayam, Business Development Manager Asia Pacific.
