Seaqualize co-founds the Feeder Barge Alliance

The smartest way to feeder: combining emerging technologies into one feedering solution: put only the required smart hardware on the barge, and the rest in a hook-based solution

Sea of Gravity, Eager one, Next ocean and seaqualize jointly push smartest solution

May 2021

Four parties jointly showcase their emerging technologies into a full smart feedering package. The combination of DP positioned barges, very simple roll compensated fastening, automated rigging, wave prediction and inline AHC tooling, offers a huge workability advantage. It combines the local operational footprint and know-how in the US (SEA.O.G) with the Offshore Wind engineering experience and innovation power of three Dutch players: Eager.One, Next.Ocean and ourselves: Seaqualize.

Together, these technologies offer a huge workability increase, saving time and money for OWT installations. And, we make smart choices on what technology is absolutely needed on the barge, and what is best placed in the crane hook. This way, you don’t need to brake the bank and still get more control over your weather downtime.

Read our joint white paper, including a detailed workability analysis based on the Vineyard Windfarm lease area, the results may surprise you!
