France's Louis-Dreyfus Armateurs (LDA) is continuing its offshore diversification with a new order in Turkey.

The company's boss Edouard Louis-Dreyfus confirmed to Les Echos a deal at Cemre Shipyard for a 5,000-gt wind farm maintenance ship.

It will be chartered to Danish energy group Orsted on delivery in February, 2020.

Louis-Dreyfus said the sector was a new growth driver for the company.
