PARTNERSHIPS
At CLT Marine, we believe that strategic partnerships are the cornerstone of our success in the rapidly evolving offshore wind industry. By aligning ourselves with industry leaders and specialized entities, we not only enhance our capabilities but also broaden our horizons to embrace locally-sourced innovative solutions and global expertise. Our collaborations with companies like Boston Line & Service, Purus Wind and Stasinos Marine exemplify our commitment to building strong, synergistic relationships that leverage the unique strengths of each partner. These partnerships enable us to deliver comprehensive and tailored services, meeting the complex demands of our clients while driving progress in the offshore wind sector. Importantly, they allow us to quickly respond to customer needs as offshore wind gains momentum in the US, ensuring that we are at the forefront of this emerging market.
Purus-HST
Our joint venture with Purus Wind, formerly known as HST, further strengthens our management team. Purus Wind, a specialist entity within Purus Marine focused on all aspects of offshore renewables around the globe, brings global expertise to complement our local knowledge and connections. The CLT/HST JV was created in 2019 to build and operate new-build Crew Transfer Vessels (CTVs) and Service Operation Vessels (SOVs) in the US market.
Since its formation in 2017, Purus Wind's fleet has grown from the original 4 vessels to an expected 20 in service by the end of 2024. To date, the company has performed hundreds of thousands safe passenger transfers while operating at over 40 offshore wind farms across the North Sea, Baltic, Irish Sea, and French West Coast. The acquisition of HST by Purus Marine in 2022 has enabled the company to focus on further fleet growth and the provision of wider services such as SOVs.
Our joint venture with Purus Wind is a strategic alliance that combines their global expertise with our local knowledge and connections. This constructive collaboration creates a robust entity that is well-equipped to navigate the fast-paced and dynamic offshore wind industry in the US. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities of this emerging market, and we are ready to hit the ground running, providing solution-oriented services that meet the specific needs of the offshore wind industry.

CLT Marine has forged a strategic partnership with Stasinos Marine, a leader in tug and barge services renowned for their expertise and robust fleet. Operating throughout the East and Gulf coasts, Stasinos Marine has a particular focus on New England and the Mid-Atlantic, aligning well with our operational areas. This collaboration extends our service offerings, enabling us to provide towing, barge transportation, and comprehensive logistical support for offshore wind projects. Together, our combined strengths ensure that we can meet the diverse and evolving needs of our clients in the offshore wind industry, delivering seamless and efficient solutions.
