Scotland-based Maritime Craft Services (MCS) offers maritime solutions with its 20 ship fleet consisting of Crew Transfer Ships (CTV), Shoalbuster, Multicat and Tug Boats. Having involved in most of the offshore wind projects implemented in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and the UK in offshore wind energy with its technician transfer service, MCS has 11 vessels in its fleet that are specific to the offshore wind energy industry. The company also aims to work in offshore wind projects in T\u00fcrkiye.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The wind energy industry met in Tokyo with Wind Expo, the largest wind energy event in Japan, between 15-17 March. Dirk Kujit, Maritime Craft Services<\/strong> representative, whom we interviewed at Wind Expo Japan, where we were a media partner as Wind Energy Magazine, shared the company’s activities and solutions in wind energy with our magazine.<\/p>\n

\"DirkCan you introduce yourself and your com- pany?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My company is called Maritime Craft Services (MCS)<\/a> and we\u2019re based in Scotland. We are owners and operators of Crew Transfer Vessels (CTVs) along with other vessel types such as Shoalbusters, Multicats and Tug Boats. Over the years we have owned a total of 6 tug boats that were built in T\u00fcrkiye, 3 of which are still in our fleet today. We currently work in various maritime sectors including dredging support, oil and gas and offshore wind.<\/p>\n

What kind of services do you offer for wind industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We own CTVs that take technicians from the shore or from a mothership to the offshore wind turbines. Our vessels push against the turbine boat landings and the technicians climb up to the turbines in order to repair and perform maintenance. Whilst it\u2019s quite a simple concept the safety standards are very high.<\/p>\n

What is the biggest project you\u2019ve worked on?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been involved in most of the offshore wind projects<\/a> in the UK and North West Europe which includes Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and France. We\u2019ve also worked on large scale projects outwith offshore wind that include the World and Palm Islands Projects in Dubai, along with the many man made islands they\u2019ve built for oil and gas projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

My main focus within MCS is developing the perfect CTV for future use. This includes using my knowledge and experience gained from 55 years in the maritime sector, along with the advancement in technologies now available. All to create a safe and comfortable vessel for the technicians to work on.<\/p>\n

Can you talk about your fleet?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We currently have a total of 20 vessels and we are always looking to expand and renew our fleet.\u00a011 of our vessels were built specifically for the offshore wind market and since this is a developing industry, for example the latest wind farms are being built further and further out to sea, we have to continually improve the seaworthiness of the vessels. Usually the technicians that we transport to wind farms are not seafarers so we have to factor this is in the design of the vessel.<\/p>\n

Do you have any messages for the Turkish wind and maritime industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, I do have a message. T\u00fcrkiye already has a great boat building tradition and expertise, and with 6 Turkish built vessels we\u2019ve owned we certainly wouldn\u2019t hesitate to have further vessels built there.\u00a0As Offshore wind progresses in T\u00fcrkiye we hope we can be part of this and use our knowledge gained from 20 years working in this industry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
