    CWind Buzzard

    A versatile and cost effective MPC 19

    Overview

    CWind Buzzard is part of our fleet of proven MPC 19 resin-infused composite vessels. To date, these vessels have been employed at more than 20 offshore wind farms in the UK and Germany.

    The vessel uses a moveable wheelhouse and modular three-section pod system enabling her to perform multiple functions including crew transfer, refuelling (16t fuel capacity), survey with moon pool attachment, dive support and full O&M support. The modular pod design offers exciting operational flexibility as well as enhanced deck space options.

    Features include fully air-conditioned, personalised suspension seating for passengers and crew, lockers and shelving for technician bags, microwave, fridge, hot water, and changing area.

    Since launch in 2012, the CWind Buzzard has worked at wind farms such as London Array OWF, Gwynt y Môr and West of Duddon Sands OWF.118.5m F
