The client and the contract were undisclosed. The work is scheduled to begin this spring and is expected to last one to two months. The vessel Wind Zaratan will mobilize to Japan following scheduled maintenance and upgrades in Singapore. Nexra was established in 2025 as Cadeler’s dedicated platform for offshore wind O&M services, focusing on maintenance, upgrades, and optimisation throughout the operational lifetime of wind farms. This contract further strengthens Cadeler's track record in the APAC region's offshore wind market. In February, Nexra secured a contract valued at more than EUR 20 million for an O&M campaign across two offshore wind farms in Taiwan, with work scheduled to start in March 2026 and last three to four months. The contract in Taiwan will be executed using Cadeler's wind turbine installation vessel (WTIV) Wind Maker. Nexra is using the vessels Wind Zaratan, Wind Scylla and Wind Keeper, and has the flexibility to use additional vessels from Cadeler’s fleet as needed.
