French crew transfer vessel (CTV) player TSM Windcat has secured long-term contracts for two of its hydrogen-ready units.

The partnership between TSM Group and Windcat, part of Antwerp-based shipping and logistics giant CMB.TECH will provide the CTVs to Les Éoliennes en Mer Services, a consortium of Ocean Winds, Sumitomo Corporation, and Caisse des Dépôts.

The vessel will serve French Îles d’Yeu and Noirmoutier and Dieppe Le Tréport offshore wind farms for the first three to five years of the operations and maintenance phase.

Established in 2012, TSM Windcat operates six CTVs, all under the French flag.
