About Us
The terminal provides storage and laydown areas for equipment and materials, berth facilities for a range of vessels such as crew transfer vessels (CTV) and service operation vessels (SOV) as well as Foss tugs and barges. It will also house new office space for project teams, crew marshalling facilities, workspaces and a marine coordination center for technicians supporting the Massachusetts Offshore Wind Industry.
We share a collective vision that the site would be repurposed to something beneficial to all while still being tied to the electrical generation sector. The terminal will revitalize the Port of New Bedford by providing critical support to the offshore wind industry.
Our vision.
Meet the team.
