Seaway 7 has been awarded a contract by Equinor and partner Polenergia for the inter-array cables of the MFW Bałtyk 2 and MFW Bałtyk 3 offshore wind projects, in the Polish part of the Baltic Sea.
The Subsea 7 subsidiary’s scope of work covers the engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of 100 66kV inter-array wires, measuring approximately 200km in length.
The two projects will be delivered in continuous campaigns with offshore works expected to commence in 2026.
MFW Bałtyk 2 and MFW Bałtyk 3, a 50:50 joint venture between Equinor and Polenergia, are two of the largest and most advanced offshore wind farms being developed in Poland, with a total installed capacity of 1.44GW.
The sites, developed in the Polish exclusive economic zone of the Baltic Sea, will be located between 22km and 37km from the coast in water depths ranging from around 25 metres to 40 metres.
Seaway 7 chief executive Stuart Fitzgerald said: “We are very pleased to have been selected to supply the full inter-array cables scope for these significant wind farms in the Baltic region.
“This is Seaway 7’s first contract in Poland, a new and emerging market for offshore wind.
“We look forward to continuing our long-standing relationship with Equinor and supporting them on their energy transition journey with this project, our sixth offshore wind project together.”
