A solid platform to build from

Cecon Contracting has relationships with several operators of offshore construction vessels. For each project we select the most appropriate vessel for the Client’s needs, taking into account the vessel’s availability, technical suitability, condition, certification, crew experience and cost effectiveness.

Cecon benefits from cooperation agreements with vessel owners, and has an excellent understanding of the short-term charter market.

In addition, Cecon is currently building a state-of-the-art cable installation vessel which will be delivered from Sefine Shipyard in Turkey Q1 2025. The vessel is designed as a versatile work platform, allowing the vessel to operate in other segments of the offshore industry when not installing cable, prepared for typical offshore wind services as well as light construction work and cable repair. See below link to specification sheet or contact us for further information.
