The Partners Group, a Switzerland-based global private markets firm, has agreed, on behalf of its clients, to acquire North Star Renewables, a UK-based operator of specialised vessels that offer emergency response and rescue as well as essential offshore wind maintenance services.
The acquisition of North Star from Basalt Infrastructure Partners also encompasses the company's fleet of 48 emergency response and rescue vessels (ERRVs) and service operation vessels (SOVs).
The Partners Group said it will expand North Star's operational scope across other offshore wind markets in Europe.
