- Baltic II
- St. Brieuc
- Triton Knoll

Upending
The upending cradle or bucket defines a rotation point, such that controlled and stable upending by a crane can always be assured. Monopile size and methodology help determine our upending design which can be further tailored to include varying beam structures. A few vessels with TWD upending include:
- Sapura 3500
- Innovation
- Aeolus
- GeoSea
- Wind Orca

Because of this fast-paced environment and the opportunities, I had a steep learning curve in which I developed myself greatly. The beauty of TWD is that if you take initiative you can grow along with this fast-growing company. Anything is possible.

What I like most about working at TWD is the “hands-on” mentality, the alternation between short and longer projects, the steep learning curve, and working with so many different nationalities.
