UK-based Manor Renewable Energy (MRE) has acquired German crew transfer vessel (CTV) owner and operator Opus Marine for an undisclosed sum.
Established in 2006, the Hamburg-based Opus operates in the German and Taiwanese offshore wind sectors.
The acquisition will see MRE’s fleet double from eight to sixteen CTVs, the majority of which are certified for 24 pax. The company also has two further hybrid design vessels and one multi-purpose workboat currently under construction.
