MPC Capital has entered the offshore wind service vessel sector with a €130m investment in the construction of six offshore survey and service vessels (OSSVs) in Denmark.
The asset manager has launched the new offshore service vessel investment platform and secured the construction of the OSSVs at Esbjerg Shipyard, with deliveries scheduled between 2026 and 2028.
MPC Capital said it will provide investment and commercial management services and will co-invest in the new investment platform.
The investment firm said it has also partnered with German offshore projects and services specialist OS Energy to develop and operate the OSSVs project.
Constantin Baack, CEO of MPC Capital, said: “Offshore wind services represent a significant structural growth market, and we are excited to bring our maritime and energy expertise to this rapidly developing sector.
“Demand for service vessels is set to grow dynamically, while a limited supply of assets is expected to drive strong momentum and create value for both our company and our partners.”
