KENC Engineering awarded jacket sea-fastening scope for largest Offshore Wind Farm Baltic Sea

KENC has been awarded an engineering contract for the sea-fastening of two large jackets. These large jackets are integral components of an offshore high voltage station (OHVS). Upon completion, the offshore windfarm will stand as the largest and most powerful offshore windfarm in the Baltic sea boasting an impressive total capacity of 927 megawatts.

KENC’s scope includes the design and engineering of the sea-fastening for the OHVS substructures. The steel jackets, each weighing 3700 metric tons and standing approximately 33 meters tall. During transport, these jackets will be positioned vertically on a barge. The lower and upper grillage system, designed and engineered by KENC, will provide crucial support for the jackets during the transition.

Eric Buining, managing director of KENC Engineering, expressed enthusiasm “We are excited to be part of the this offshore wind farm project. We are proud to contribute in large-scale initiatives like this and we look forward to work on this project.”

The engineering work is scheduled for delivery in November 2024"
