Her Royal Highness Princess Astrid, Princess of Belgium names world’s largest fallpipe vessel ‘Yellowstone’
DEME is proud to announce that Her Royal Highness Princess Astrid, Princess of Belgium officially named the new fallpipe vessel ‘Yellowstone’ in Zeebrugge, Belgium on 4 June. Boasting a payload capacity of 37,000 tonnes, ‘Yellowstone’ further solidifies DEME’s leadership in the offshore energy industry. This summer ‘Yellowstone’ sets sail for the US to work on the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project.
Yellowstone’ is designed to ensure versatility and efficiency in subsea rock placement projects. It features a central vertical fallpipe that is capable of operating in water depths of 600-700 metres, along with a large inclined fallpipe which has been designed for shallower depths of 3050 metres. This configuration will enable precise rock placement activities near subsea structures, such as offshore wind turbine monopiles. With its exceptional loading capacity, ‘Yellowstone’ is particularly well-suited for projects requiring longer distances or transit times
