Description of Incident
A CTV drifted into and hit a nearby structure at 0.5 knots.
A crew transfer from a CTV to a Service Operation Vessel (SOV) was successfully completed. The SOV was 180 metres from a wind turbine generator (WTG) on the field. The CTV moved away from the SOV and propulsion controls were set to zero, and the crew continued to complete reporting and administrative tasks.
The CTV drifted into and hit the nearby structure at 0.5 knots, prompting the CTV Master to immediately move ahead and away to a safe area while vessel hull checks and reporting was carried out. The WTG asset was also inspected and some damage to the paintwork was noted. No-one was injured.
