KENC Engineering has been awarded the jacket seafastening contract for an offshore high voltage substation in the Baltic Sea.
The scope is for the seafastening of two large jackets, integral components of a the OHVS.
KENC’s scope includes the design and engineering of the seafastening for the OHVS substructures.
The transmission asset will be connected to a 927MW offshore wind farm in the Batic Sea.
The steel jackets each weigh 3700 metric tons and stand approximately 33 metres tall.
During transport, these jackets will be positioned vertically on a barge. The lower and upper grillage system, designed and engineered by KENC, will provide crucial support for the jackets during the transition.
Eric Buining, managing director of KENC Engineering, said: “We are excited to be part of this offshore wind farm project.
“We are proud to contribute in large-scale initiatives like this and we look forward to work on this project.”
The engineering work is scheduled for delivery in November 2024.
Gennaker is a 927MW offshore wind project being constructed in the German Baltic Sea.
