Norway-based TMC Compressors secured a contract from Yantai CIMC Raffles Offshore to supply marine compressed air systems for two subsea rock installation vessels. These vessels are being built for Dutch marine contractor Van Oord and will feature complete marine compressed air systems, including instrument air compressors and air dryers. The vessels are designed to support subsea rock installation operations, a technique crucial for protecting and stabilizing offshore energy infrastructure, particularly for offshore wind developments.
