4. Zhenhua Heavy Industry's first dedicated offshore wind power operation and maintenance mother ship in China
Recently, Zhenhua Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. officially launched the two wind power operation and maintenance mother ships (SOV) projects of Shanghai Electric that won the bid as the EPC general contractor. The two dedicated wind power operation and maintenance mother ships are basically designed by well-known European design companies, and at the same time apply patented technology. The design models are SX195 and SX197 respectively.
Among them, the SX195 is 93.4 meters long, 18 meters wide, and has a design speed of 12.3 knots. It can provide 100 people with transshipment and more than 30 days of sea life and operation support. The interior of the cabin is designed in accordance with the requirements of the new generation of wind farms, and the dynamic wave compensation trestle is installed on the ship, which can meet the safe and smooth transfer of personnel and materials between the ship and the tower when the significant wave height is 3 meters.
The SX197 is 72.76 meters long, 17.5 meters wide, and has a design speed of 12 knots. It can provide 60 people with transshipment and support for life and operations at sea for more than 30 days. It is equipped with the first retractable trestle bridge with wave compensation function newly developed by Zhenhua Heavy Industry.
