Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering (MMHE) has secured a subcontract for the offshore substation HVDC platform for TenneTs 2GW Ijmuiden ver Alpha offshore wind site from Petrofac.
The scope consists of construction engineering, fabrication, mechanical completion, load out and sea fastening, and architectural works on engineering, procurement and construction basis of the topside and jacket
Prior to the subcontract, MMHE and Petrofac had entered into an early works agreement back in July 2023.
This saw MMHE begin the preparatory works and deployment of key personnel for design and constructability support in line with Petrofac’s targeted delivery of the offshore substation.
This platform will comprise a topside weighing approximately 30,000 tonnes (including equipment) and a jacket weighing approximately 10,000 tonnes.
In addition, the parties will also collaborate towards the possibility of fabrication works for two (2) additional OSS units of similar size.
MHB managing director and chief executive Pandai Othman said: "We are truly honoured to support TenneT’s 2GW programme with our client, Petrofac, whom we would like to express our gratitude for entrusting us with this monumental project.
"This represents a significant achievement for MHB on two fronts that we have been diligently pursuing – venturing into the renewable energy sector and establishing our presence internationally.
"Rest assured, MHB is wholly committed to the successful delivery of this project, upholding our commitment to stakeholders and recognising our responsibility to the planet and generations to come.
"Gearing up for fabrication works, MHB will be expanding further the reactivation of MMHE East yard which will be utilised alongside MMHE West yard in delivering this project." |
