Bibby Offshore, a services provider to the subsea industry, has announced the Olympic Ares is currently being utilized to install a tidal energy turbine in the Pentland Firth, Northern Scotland.
 
The Olympic Ares, which is equipped with a 250te AHC Knuckle Boom crane, was selected for its excellent seakeeping ability to work in challenging conditions. Bibby Offshore’s owned and operated ROVs will also be utilized on the project.
