Swire Blue Ocean (SBO) has secured a contract with MHI Vestas for the transportation and installation of turbines at the Seagreen offshore wind project in Scotland.<\/p>\n
Seagreen will comprise 114 MHI Vestas V164-10 MW turbines located some 27 kilometers off the Angus coast.<\/p>\n
SBO expects to commence the installation of the units in the second half of 2021. <\/p>\n
Upon completion of Seagreen, offshore wind turbines installed by our vessels should be capable of meeting the energy needs of more than half of Scottish households; which is a great achievement for our company, said SBO CEO Mikkel Gleerup. <\/p>\n
We could not have reached this phenomenal milestone without committed project partners such as MHI Vestas and SSE, companies that have demonstrated dedication to the expansion of offshore wind in Scotland.<\/p>\n
SSE Renewables reachedthe final investment decision (FID)for Seagreen in early June, when it also announced that Total would take a 51% stake in the project.<\/p>\n
The 1,075 MW wind farm is planned to be commissioned in 2024.<\/p>\n
