Blue Tern
The Blue Tern offshore wind jack-up installation vessel required a suitable quayside for maintenance and miscellaneous tasks such as bunkering and crew changes.
Port of Aberdeen and agent, Clarksons Port Services, swiftly offered quayside and jacking location at the new Aberdeen South Harbour. This allowed all required activities to completed safely and efficiently in a few weeks. The Blue Tern has since returned to Port of Aberdeen in August 2023.
“Port of Aberdeen was very flexible and provided a great service offering for Blue Tern’s port call. We thank the port for its assistance and would not hesitate to use the facilities again.”
