ELHAND transformer on board the modern MPP from Crist Shipyard
The Gdynia-based Crist SA shipyard, known for producing unique floating units, once again confirms its market position by supplying a top-class MPP to the Femern Link Contractors (FLC) consortium. The barge, referred to as MPP (multi-purpose pontoon) and equipped with ELHAND transformers, will play a key role in the construction of the world’s longest immersed tunnel to date.
Equipping this specialized unit with transformer from ELHAND is a result of the company’s experience in maritime projects and the trust designers place in ELHAND products. High quality, reliability, the ability to operate in demanding maritime conditions, as well as the flexibility and customization of ELHAND products, have made the company a partner in modern and specialized Maritime Industry projects for nearly 40 years.
ELHAND transformers are a crucial element of the unit's electrical infrastructure, ensuring stable power supply and the expected performance. Thanks to this, the specialized dump barge can precisely and evenly lay gravel on the seabed, creating foundations for the segments of the immersed tunnel that will connect Denmark and Germany.
We are pleased to support the development of communication infrastructure in Europe by providing reliable solutions that contribute to the success of this historic undertaking. ELHAND transformers are a choice that ensures steadfast performance in every project demanding the highest standards of quality and dependability.
