Royal Boskalis B.V. has announced the upcoming addition of a groundbreaking subsea rock installation vessel, named ‘Windpiper,’ which will feature a cargo capacity of 45,500 metric tons. This vessel, set to be the largest of its kind in the industry, will enhance Boskalis’ capabilities in the specialized subsea market, where it currently operates three other SRI vessels. The ‘Windpiper’ is scheduled for delivery in the first quarter of 2026 and is expected to significantly increase the company's operational capacity, solidifying its position as the leading player in this sector. The vessel will primarily support offshore wind projects in Northwest Europe, contributing to the ongoing energy transition efforts.
