All-electric driven offshore wind power multifunctional operation and maintenance mother ship launched in Fuzhou

       The "M913-1", a fully electric-driven offshore wind power multifunctional operation and maintenance mother ship designed and built by China with completely independent intellectual property rights, was successfully launched in Mawei, Fuzhou on February 29.
       This large-scale fully electric-driven offshore wind power multifunctional operation and maintenance mother ship designed by China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation for Fujian Haidian Operation and Maintenance Technology Co., Ltd. is 98.7 meters long, 22.8 meters wide, with a designed displacement of 9,497 tons and a cruising range of more than 10,000 nautical miles. It is a ship with unlimited navigation area. The ship can provide deep-sea shipping and maintenance services for offshore wind power, as well as submarine cable laying and maintenance services. It is currently a relatively advanced and comprehensive fully electric-driven offshore wind power multifunctional operation and maintenance mother ship in China.
       "The core equipment such as the offshore wind power intelligent operation and maintenance system, cable laying operation system and buried plow equipped on the ship are all domestically produced. Its offshore wind power intelligent integrated management system has effectively improved the operational capacity and efficiency of offshore wind power operation and maintenance work; the use of full electric drive is more conducive to environmental protection and energy conservation and emission reduction." Yang Yu, manager of the equipment support department of Fujian Haidian Operation and Maintenance Technology Co., Ltd., said.
In recent years, Fujian Province has made every effort to accelerate the development of high-end, intelligent and green marine equipment. It has made every effort to promote the development of the electric ship industry, accelerate the research and development of operation and maintenance ships and offshore engineering ships, and achieve breakthroughs in the market expansion of the main business of offshore power operation and maintenance, creating a number of offshore wind power operation and maintenance products with international competitiveness.
       With the structural transformation of global energy, relevant national departments have vigorously promoted the rapid development of the wind power industry and improved the offshore wind power industry chain. The development of offshore wind power resources has gradually advanced into the deep sea, and the demand for providing professional operation and maintenance equipment and efficient operation and maintenance services for deep sea wind farms has continued to increase.
       "The offshore wind power multifunctional operation and maintenance mother ship "M913-1" launched this time will further improve China's deep sea wind power operation and maintenance and submarine cable laying emergency repair capabilities. The ship successfully integrates the wind power intelligent operation and maintenance system and the submarine cable laying operation planning system with the ship operation management system, achieving a technical level upgrade, which will provide strong guarantees for China's deep sea wind power development and other marine economic development."
