ABB to power Allseas heavy transport vessel for offshore wind operations

ABB has secured a contract to supply an integrated power and propulsion system for Allseas’ new semi-submersible heavy transport vessel Grand Tour. Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI) is building the 230-metre vessel for offshore contractor Allseas. Delivery is scheduled for 2028. Grand Tour will support offshore wind projects by transporting large converter stations. These units will move from fabrication sites in Asia and Europe to Allseas’ construction vessel Pioneering Spirit for installation.
