| Work Detail |
Sweden’s Vattenfall has selected DEME Offshore to further strengthen the cables around the Netherlands’ Hollandse Kust Zuid offshore wind farm site. Under the contract, DEME will carry out rock installation utilising its fleet of fall pipe vessels with work set to take place between the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2025. Sam Gardner, project manager at Vattenfall, said: “We have decided to proactively implement these measures due to previous experiences in the offshore wind industry. In doing so, we will extend the lifespan of the cables and reduce risks.” Prior to the installation work for the stone verges, Dutch surveyor Fugro will carry out inter-array cable inspections and scour path inspections utilising electric remotely operated vehicles that use up to 95% less fuel than conventional support vessels. |
