Exciting News
Together with our ARGE partner Pegasus Shipping GmbH, Co. KG (Harren Group) , Otto Wulf GmbH & Co. KG will soon be managing a new special-purpose vessel for the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The planning, construction and ship management of the vessel were tendered by the Central Command for Maritime Emergencies (Havariekommando). The newbuild – a Multi Cat 2309 from the Dutch shipyard DAMEN Shipyards (Damen) – is scheduled to enter service in early 2026.
What makes this project particularly noteworthy is not only that the vessel will be available to the Havariekommando for potential oil spill response in the Baltic Sea region, but also that the ARGE will be able to operate the Multi Cat 2309 for commercial purposes. The vessel will be stationed in the port of Sassnitz on the island of Rügen, directly at the Baltic Sea. It is close to the wind parks ARCADIS OST 1, BALTIC 1 BALTIC 2, BALTIC EAGLE, WIKINGER, WIKINGER SÜD and ARKONA.
With powerful deck equipment including a deck crane, winches, towing hook, shark jaws, a mobile A-frame, and a moon pool, the vessel is ideally equipped to offer a wide range of maritime services. This highly versatile workboat will be available in the Mecklenburg Baltic Sea area for missions such as towing, salvage, dredging, material transport, research, survey operations and more.
Both the crew and the vessel – like the rest of our fleet – will be true all-rounders, providing reliable, hands-on solutions for our clients.
