Financing wind vessels

The event takes place in Aberdeen, UK from 25^th -26^th March 2015, and has the following three presentations geared to financial considerations:

– Contract Options for Offshore Wind Projects

– Financing the Procurement of New Vessels

– Exploring Options in Vessel Sharing

With a drive towards renewable forms of energy, the last few years has seen huge investment on a European wide scale in creating large wind farms off the coast of a number of European countries. The result has been the need for a specialised fleet of vessels to install and service these wind farms. The need to transfer both equipment and manpower in a safe and efficient manner has led to calls for more stringent health & safety guidelines and industry wide debate on how best to apply existing IMO instruments on operational activities. The conference will give a special focus to operational techniques used within this specialised area, highlight the developments in IMO regulation as well as considering these contractual and financing options for new vessels.

Delegates will be drawn from vessels owners, managers and operators, shipbuilders, shipyards, designers, energy companies, charterers, naval architects, engineers, classification societies, brokers, repairing companies and vendors.
