SEA INSTALLER’s much anticipated sister vessel, SEA CHALLENGER, arrived in Esbjerg on May 17 to be greeted by a crowd of A2SEA staff, clients, local dignitaries, press and many other maritime enthusiasts.

Before sailing to her first project at DONG Energy’s Westermost Rough wind farm, SEA CHALLENGER is scheduled for mobilisation in Esbjerg during June.

A “Welcome SEA CHALLENGER” event will be held on June 25 for invited customers, providing an opportunity to go on board and learn more about this advanced, second-generation installation vessel.
