D2-vessel deployed in Yunlin wind farm
Jumbo Javelin | Jumbo Offshore has used its heavy-lift crane vessel, Jumbo Javelin , at the Yunlin wind farm off the Taiwanese coast in an installation project for Yunneng Wind Power Co Ltd. The DP2 vessel was equipped specially for the job, with a Jumbo Fly-Job modular crane boom extension to increase lifting height. The ship was therefore capable of lifting 27m-high transition pieces.
