MOL SOV for service in Taiwan


On 1 April, MOL and Ta Tong Marine (TTM) signed a charter contract for the SOV with Ørsted Taiwan Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ørsted in Denmark, through Ta San Shang Marine, a joint company of MOL and TTM.

 

At the same time, Ta San Shang Marine signed a contract with VARD Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vard Group in Norway, to build the new vessel. The SOV is slated to be delivered at Vard Vung Tau, a shipyard in Vietnam, during the first half of 2022.

 

Then, it will provide maintenance support operations for the Greater Changhua wind farms under development by Ørsted, for a term of 15 years, with an extension option to 20 years.

 

The construction of an offshore wind farm with a capacity of 5.5 GW from 2020 to 2025 in the Taiwan strait has been approved by the authorities. (mw)
