he Louis Dreyfus Armateurs Group and partner Tidal Transit recently signed a contract with EDF renewables to supply another CTV. All three CTVs will be designed by naval architect Mauric, a naval architecture firm based in Nantes, and built by French shipyard OCEA, specialist in aluminum vessels with French-based production sites. LD Tide (a joint venture between Louis Dreyfus Armateurs and Tidal Transit) will operate the CTVs for the transfer of maintenance technicians to the windfarm.

The CTVs will sail under the French flag and will have the mission of ensuring the transfer of technicians (24 offshore wind technicians per crossing) between the coast and the farm for wind turbines maintenance. In addition, the collaboration with Tidal Transit, a recognised specialist in offshore wind power, is also one of the key elements of this new industrial partnership. This contract is a new success for the Louis Dreyfus Armateurs Group in the field of renewable energy.
