KenzFigee has signed a contract with Aker Solutions to provide an offshore pedestal crane for installation on ScottishPower Renewables’ converter station for the East Anglia 3 (EA3) offshore wind farm.
The pedestal crane will be installed on the high voltage direct current (HVDC) offshore converter station for the 1.4MW offshore wind farm in the North Sea.
Delivery involves an electric hydraulic box boom offshore Ram Luffing 2400 type designed and manufactured by KenzFigee.
The crane will be designed and verified in accordance with the EN13852-1 and certified against DNVGL-ST-0378 lifting requirements, all with a strong focus on safety, reliability and easy and low maintenance.
The expected delivery of the Ram Luffing offshore crane is scheduled for the second quarter in 2024.
“We are very pleased to have been selected by Aker Solutions for the design and delivery of our robust offshore pedestal crane for installation on the EA3 HVDC converter station, which will be located in the North Sea off the east coast of England.
“This contract award perfectly fits in our strategy to increase the supply of our electrically driven products to the renewable industry,” said Robert de Rijcke, CCO of KenzFigee.
