The Southeast Asian subsidiary of Drydocks World has announced the recent delivery of JB-114 and JB-115 from its Drydocks World Nanindah yard on Batam Island, Indonesia, to Self Elevating Platforms N.V.
The unit will be operated by subsidiary company, Jack-Up Barge B.V., which specialises in supplying the oil & gas, wind farm and civil construction industries and wind turbines markets, as well as the heavy civil construction market.
“Both JB-114 and JB-115 are part of a series of sophisticated barges contracted by Self Elevating Platforms N.V., and we are pleased to have successfully delivered four of them to date,” Denis Welch, CEO of Drydocks World – Southeast Asia, said.
“These barges will be used specifically for wind farm installation activities, which is one of the industries (alternative energy or power generation) that we are actively pursuing, given that our ship repair, conversion and new building capabilities can be easily extrapolated to suit this growing industry’s requirements,” he added.
