Cadeler A/S has announced the signing of a vessel reservation agreement (VRA) for a pipeline of wind projects in the Asia-Pacific region. The VRA secures the availability of one of Cadeler’s two state-of the art newbuild M-Class vessels and underlines Cadeler’s continued expansion in the Asia-Pacific market.
The aggregate potential value to Cadeler of development pipeline, to be negotiated during the pendency of the VRA is expected to be approximately €200 million.
The pipeline of projects will meet the energy needs of approximately 1 360 000 households when fully operational.
The state-of-the-art newbuild M-Class vessel that is expected to work on these projects is one of six newbuilds that will be joining Cadeler’s fleet in the coming years (in addition to the Wind Peak, which Cadeler took delivery of last month). The signing of this contract underlines Cadeler’s continued expansion in the Asia-Pacific market.
Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler, said: “The Asia-Pacific market has significant growth potential and is of great interest to Cadeler. Expanding our presence in that market with this VRA aligns with our global business strategy. With our first state-of-the-art newbuild received, and six additional newbuilds being delivered over the coming years, we will be able to handle the largest and most complex next-generation offshore wind installation projects, further building our backlog and ensuring that our customers and partners can look to Cadeler as offering the strongest choice of flexibility and supply-chain certainty”.
