The project will feature 165 foundations in total, the remaining 130 TPs are under construction at Bladt facilities in Denmark.
DEME Offshore heavy lift vessel Orion will fit all the transition pieces to EEW-built tubulars during a foundation installation campaign set to get underway early next year.
The project will feature Siemens Gamesa 8MW turbines and is due to be fully commissioned in 2022.
