London-listed Middle East rig construction group Lamprell has named the latest lift boat which will be aimed at the North Sea wind farm installation market.

Lamprell has now named the Seajacks Zaratan, the third in a series of wind farm installation vessels built for Seajacks.

Zaratan, at 13,700 tonnes, is a specialised self-elevating offshore wind turbine installation vessel based on a Gusto MSC NG-5500 design, with a payload of 2,950 tonnes and which is equipped with aN 800 tonne circular crane.

Previously Lamprell has also built the Seajacks Kraken and Leviathan for the offshore wind installation company, which was recently sold by owner Riverstone Holdings, to a Japanese entity,Marubeni Corporation and the Innovation Network Corporation of Japan (INCJ) with the deal due to close at the end of this month.

“Built in 23 months from contract date, on schedule, this important milestone underscores Lamprell’s commitment to our customers in the renewable energy market,” declared Lamprell chief executive Nigel McCue as the latest vessel was named just before its due delivery to Seajacks next month.

Kevin Alcock, Seajacks' vice president of newbuild projects said on time delivery was key in the company's selection of Lamprell for its vessel construction programme. “With demand for these vessels growing in line with the sector demands, the delivery of projects on time is paramount,” Alcock said at the naming ceremony today.

Lamprell has built a total of five self-elevating installation vessel so far, three for Seajacks and two for other clients.
