OFFSHORE WIND SERVICES

Four decades of marine services

We have been supporting commercial marine customers for over four decades.

24/7 call out
Multi-skilled, manufacturer-trained engineers
Experienced marine technicians

Originally repairing vessels working on offshore gas installations in the North Sea in the 1980s and 1990s, our mainstay is now meeting the needs of vessels supporting the many offshore wind farms in the North Sea. We’ve worked on a wide range of crew transfer vessels (CTVs), service operation vessels (SOVs), offshore support vessels (OSVs) and jack up lift barges for customers across the UK.

In addition to undertaking engine maintenance and overhaul for propulsion and auxiliary sets for any brand of engine, we also service and repair backup diesel generators in offshore substations.

Our vessel support is not limited to engines. We also provide a wide range of repairs including general machinery repairs, electrical, mechanical and hydraulic engineering works, and pipefitting and structural steelwork.

Our technicians are all manufacturer-trained, understand the importance of rapid response, working to a high standard and providing excellent customer service.

Take a look at just some of the ways we are helping our offshore wind customers:

Hybrid vessel support

As the UK’s first service partner for Danfoss Editron, Prior Power Solutions supports new hybrid technology combining highly efficient diesel engines with electric motors through maintenance and repair.

The technology, relatively new to the UK, is utilised on some crew transfer vessels requires less diesel fuel and reduces carbon dioxide and small particle emissions.

Offshore Wind Substation Diesel Generator Service Repair

Substations

Prior Power Solutions undertakes routine preventative maintenance of crucial back up generators on offshore substations. These emergency generators provide backup power to crucial systems in the event of loss of connection to the onshore substation.

Typically required annually, we also support corrective maintenance situations such as breakdowns and repairs.

Engine repair

We undertake all engine repairs both in situ and at our fully equipped workshop in Great Yarmouth.

Covering main marine engine manufacturers including Volvo Penta, Caterpillar, MAN, Scania and Perkins our range of work spans health checks and diagnostics to servicing, repairs and complete overhauls of both engines and engine-driven equipment.

Sea fastenings

We design and install bespoke sea fastenings that ensure minimal debris after cutting.

For a jack up lift barge we produced 400 cleats and 28 steel beams to secure 35 pieces of equipment in just 36 hours.

Mobile generators

We supply mobile generators and transformers to customers’ exact requirements for maintaining offshore wind turbines.

Used to provide temporary power to the turbine’s critical systems during routine maintenance or emergency repair
