瓦錫蘭與臺船環海簽船舶生命周期協議

芬蘭技術集團瓦錫蘭已經與臺船環海風電工程有限公司（CSBC-DEME Wind Engineering）簽署了一份長期資產性能保證（Guaranteed Asset Performance）協議，具體涉及一艘新造216米長的安裝船“Green Jade”號。

據悉，船東臺船環海是臺船和DEME Offshore公司的合資企業，“Green Jade”號是臺船環海在臺灣設計和建造的一艘海上重吊DP3安裝船。

臺船環海首席執行官Marco Kanaar表示，"對這艘新船進行高效率利用對于我們的業務非常重要，因此，我們選擇了瓦錫蘭的推進器和發動機，該公司在質量和可靠性方面具有卓越的口碑。通過簽署這項維護協議，我們與瓦錫蘭結成了合作伙伴關系，不僅能提高我們船隊的運營效率和資產可用性，而且將加強了我們共同的承諾，以培養當地人才，促進就業機會，為臺灣海工行業的持續成功奠定基礎。”

瓦錫蘭的訂單計入今年一季度業績，此次協議的全部內容包括遠程運營支持、推進狀態監測服務和瓦錫蘭的專家視野（Expert Insight）預測性維護服務。其中的專家視野利用人工智能和基于規則的先進診斷來持續監測運營數據，從而確保資產的可用性和可靠性。

瓦錫蘭船舶協議銷售總裁Henrik Wilhelms介紹說，“從最初的討論開始，很明顯，在項目執行過程中，可用性、維護靈活性和可靠性對臺船環海的這個項目至關重要。該船持有特殊的船旗管理和船級社豁免，具有7.5年的干船塢間隔，這是通過數據、人工智能以及我們與船舶運營商之間的密切合作實現的。”

該協議還包括全面的計劃維護，包括這艘安裝船上的瓦錫蘭發動機和推進器的所有主要大修，以及原始部件備件。協議規定的大修間隔時間保證，減少了大修的頻率，不僅大幅降低了成本，而且最大限度的減少了維護對環境的影響。

Wärtsilä Lifecycle Agreement for Installation Vessel Green Jade

Wärtsilä reports it has signed a long-term Guaranteed Asset Performance agreement with CSBC-DEME Wind Engineering Co Ltd (CDWE), a joint venture between CSBC Corporation and DEME Offshore. The agreement covers CDWE’s new 216 meters-long installation vessel, the Green Jade.

Marco Kanaar, CEO of CDWE, owner of the Taiwan-designed and -built offshore heavy lift DP3 installation vessel Green Jade says: "High utilization of our Green Jade is of utmost importance to our business which is why we have selected the Wärtsilä thrusters and engines for its reputation for excellent quality and reliability. By formalizing our partnership with Wärtsilä through this maintenance agreement, we are not only enhancing the operational efficiency and asset availability of our fleet but also fostering our joint commitment to nurturing local talent, facilitating employment opportunities and solidifying a foundation for sustained success in Taiwan's offshore industry."

The full scope of the agreement includes remote operational support, a propulsion condition monitoring service and Wärtsilä’s Expert Insight predictive maintenance service. Expert Insight utilizes artificial intelligence and rule-based advanced diagnostics to continuously monitor operating data. This secures asset availability and reliability.

“From the very first discussions it was clear that availability, maintenance flexibility and reliability were essential for this project with CDWE during project execution. This vessel holds a special flag administration and classification society exemption, permitting 7.5 years drydocking intervals. This is enabled with data, AI and close collaboration between us and the ship operator,” said Henrik Wilhelms, Director, Agreement Sales, Wärtsilä Marine.

The agreement also includes comprehensive scheduled maintenance, including all major overhauls of the ship’s Wärtsilä engines and thrusters, along with original spare parts. The time-between-overhaul guarantees, provided by the agreement, decrease the frequency of overhauls. This not only significantly reduces the cost, but also minimizes the environmental impact of the maintenance.
