“Zwerver V” Completes Final Crane Installation and Mobilization for Van Oord

Van Stee Offshore is proud to announce the successful installation of the third and final crane on its shallow draughted flagship ”Zwerver V”. The vessel returned to the Netherlands in January 2025 for the integration of this final piece of heavy equipment at the port of Vlissingen.

The crane installation marks the completion of the Zwerver V’s outfitting program. The new crane is an active-heave compensated offshore knuckle boom crane fabricated by Scaldon and with a lifting capacity of 100 tonnes, adding enhanced versatility and lifting power to the vessel’s already extensive capabilities. This setup allows “Zwerver V” to perform a wide range of offshore support activities, including subsea operations, heavy cargo handling, and precision lifting tasks in challenging marine environments.
