Offshore wind ro-ro vessel Rotra Futura has officially commenced operations with the transportation of wind turbine blades from Denmark to the USA.
Launched in November 2024, Rotra Futura has been specifically designed to handle larger and heavier offshore wind turbine components. Under the supervision of deugro Denmark’s wind experts, its initial task was to collect 108 m-long blades at the port of Aalborg.
“After years of preparation and hard work, it brings great joy to finally see her in action. Witnessing the first loading operation executed so smoothly and precisely – just as we had planned for – is a proud moment for our entire team,” said Dennis Bjørslev Jensen, branch manager, deugro Denmark. “Rotra Futura has performed to our full expectations, reaffirming her vital role in supporting the logistics needs of the offshore wind market.”
