Damen delivers new Multi Cat to Bohlen & Doyen Bau

Just one month after the contract was signed, Damen has delivered a new Multi Cat 1908 SD (shallow draught) to the German energy infrastructure construction company Bohlen & Doyen Bau GmbH, a subsidiary of Friedrich Vorwerk.

The vessel, named Scholle, is the first marine asset to be bought by the company in many years.

The 19.4-metre vessel has been bought for use on a multi-year project supporting transmission system operator TenneT on its offshore grid connection systems in the North Sea.

Bohlen & Doyen’s new acquisitionwill be used for a wide variety of support tasks in the coastal waters of Germany.

Its minimum draught of just one metre will enable it to access waters that very few other vessels can safely reach.

“We are very pleased to add this ultra shallow draft vessel to our fleet, providing us with an even wider range of applications in our hydraulic engineering department,” said Tim Hameister, CFO of Bohlen & Doyen.
