GE Wind once again appointed Celtic Shipping Agencies to handle its latest shipments from Turkey to Ireland.

Building on an earlier project via the Irish Port of Killybegs, GE chose Celtic Shipping once again to handle this latest work. This time, the project was handled in the Port of Waterford, Ireland which GE had never experienced.

The first vessel of this latest project MV Lifter loaded 18 x 52 m blades at Izmir in Turkey and arrived in Waterford Ireland shortly thereafter.

The discharge commenced the following day and completion was swift. The subject vessel then departed during the afternoon of the same day.

The second vessel MV Clipper New York loaded 18 tower sections up to 66 mt in China and arrived quickly in Waterford, Ireland. Again an excellent discharge and all went very well.

The components are currently being forwarded to the site from the port.
