Dutch company GustoMSC has signed a memorandum of understanding with Halla Wind Energy and Korean Maritime Consultants to design floating foundations for the 100MW Dongbu wind project at Jeju Island in South Korea.
Under the terms of the deal, GustoMSC will carry basic design of the tri-floater foundations for the developer Halla Wind Energy.
The tri-floater has a three column, slender and brace-less hull that is semi-submersible and can be customized for all types of offshore wind turbines, GustoMSC said
Korean Maritime Consultants will carry out the detailed design of the floater, while a manufacturer still needs to be chosen, the Dutch company said.
