The MULTRASHIP COMMANDER is classified as an Emergency Response Towing Vessel (ERTV), a specialized rescue tug. It is stationed at sea near the Borssele wind farm as a preventive measure to safeguard maritime safety. In the event of an emergency, rapid assistance is critical, for example, if a vessel loses propulsion and drifts toward a wind turbine. For this reason, the rescue tug remains on duty at sea around the clock to prevent incidents.
