SeaRenergy signs long-term charter for BOS Prelude with Britoil to enhance offshore supply operations
SeaRenergy has signed a long-term charter agreement with Britoil Offshore Services for the Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) BOS Prelude, strengthening its offshore supply capabilities in the North Sea. The vessel will not only be deployed under SeaRenergy’s multi-year offshore infrastructure contract with Siemens Energy, supporting the installation & commissioning of converter platforms but also be available for any other supply duties in the German Bight and the UK sector.
The vessel charter has a firm duration of seven years, with options to extend for up to three additional years, potentially securing supply services for a full decade.
Originally acquired by Britoil from Vroon Offshore in 2023, the BOS Prelude will play a key role in ensuring reliable and efficient logistics for offshore energy projects. Operating from German Bight ports and in the UK sector as needed, the PSV will support material transfers and offshore logistics for Siemens Energy’s offshore infrastructure framework.
„With the BOS Prelude, we are expanding our offshore supply activities and reaffirming our commitment to providing efficient and seamless offshore infrastructure support services,“ said Dr. Benjamin Vordemfelde, Managing Director of SeaRenergy Offshore Holding GmbH. „The long-term charter with Britoil is an important step in expanding our reliable supply chain for offshore projects in the North Sea. „The PSV will complement SeaRenergy’s existing offshore logistics services, ensuring uninterrupted supply operations throughout the commissioning phase of critical offshore energy infrastructure.
“We are excited to partner with SeaRenergy for the long-term charter of BOS Prelude,” said Andrea Cavo, Head of SBU – Europe, Mediterranean, and Americas at Britoil Offshore Services. “With our decades of experience supporting offshore energy leaders worldwide, we are proud to extend our expertise to the growing offshore wind sector. BOS Prelude will play a key role in advancing SeaRenergy’s offshore operations in the North Sea, delivering excellence through reliable and sustainable services that drive the transition to a greener future.”
