As offshore wind turbines age and next-gen models continue to scale up, the number of jack-up interventions is increasing across all turbine classes.
So the big question is:
What is driving the increase and can the O&M jack-up vessel supply keep pace?
How are jack-up vessel owners meeting demand:
▪ More vessels entering the market — we have seen return to the European market after working in China as well as new builds with partial O&M focus
▪ Increased vessel utilization
▪ Installation vessels supporting O&M work between installation tasks
Together, these factors are putting pressure on the jack-up market — and raising tough questions for operators and planners.
Want to know:
▪ Which turbine platforms are driving intervention demand?
▪ Whether current vessel supply is enough to meet future needs?
▪ How vessel performance varies across turbine classes?
Let’s talk.
At Sea Impact, we combine real-world data on failure rates, vessel utilization, and duration benchmarks to help you plan smarter.
