Which vessels are required for O&M and installation phase? Ron van de Velde Seite 4
Required vessels for O&M Mothership Crewtransfer Monitoring Exemplary visualised for a windfarm with 80 turbines Windturbine Maintenance / Windturbine Installation Vessel Cable Maintenance Dive-Support Vessel & ROV, Not all vessels of installation are required for O&M Number and type of vessels depends of type, size, location of wind farm and on: Calendar-based maintenance Condition-based maintenance Unplanned corrective maintenance Seite 5
Competition between the 2 phases Required vessels for Installation (Comparison) Pontoon Tugs Exemplary visualised for a windfarm with 80 turbines Accommodation Vessel Dive-Support Vessel & ROV Installation vessel Cable Layer Crewtransfer Guard Vessel Crane Vessel Monitoring Schallschutz The Installation of a wind farm requires approx 20-30 vessels Similar vessels are needed for both phases Installation phase is more time critical than O&M For O&M the vessels should be available immediately, especially if damage has to be repaired High competition between O&M and the installation phase Seite 6

Status-quo on the tonnage supply and its current development Current logistics concepts must meet the Vessel supply also in respect to substitute vessels Future logistics can require more sophisticated and specialized vessels Logistics must give vessel owners the chance to provide specialized vessels based on reliable and long lasting logistic concept, which has potential also for other charterers Logistics must consider their technical requirements in terms of charter hire budgets Logistics must give Owners of highly specialized Vessels at least an out load for long term charter party Seite 13
What must the charterers ask for when considering work packages? Work packages One Owner able to provide all the vessels, will result in higher day rates, higher dependency Few owners only able to provide the full package Fixed logistic setup with tailor made solution fitting logistics if possible No work packages Vessels will be provided by different owners or contractors, which can result in cheaper day rates Wide range of tonnage supply, higher redundancy Flexible logistic setup with variable solution fitting changing logistics Seite 14
At what point is it reasonable for a charterer to demand longterm C/Ps? - how should vessels owners react to this? Long maintenance contracts Highly specialized vessels Reliable logistic concept it is reasonable to require a long term charter party Only then Owners are able to develop accordingly a newbuild or a conversion fitting to these requirements Ron Dobson Seite 15

Charter, buy or newbuild Charter S&P Newbuild Forecast of demand will bring charter costs in the future up. No availability guarantee. With a low workload per year (< 200 days p.a.) it s the most flexible and suitable acquisition of tonnage. Technical progress is always useable. Own capital resources (30-50%) are bound up for a long term period. Risk of capacity utilisation, operation costs of the vessel, damage and dockings have to be done. 100% flexibility and availability of ship tonnage with calculable costs. Expansion of maritime competences / Services Long term planning with advance financing necessary. Lack of building quality and delayed delivery can endanger the project progress Tonnage fits perfectly to the own demand. Technical progress, e.g. less fuel consumption can be used Seite 18
