Mammoet, in conjunction with Glacier Vitality and Hutchinson Engineering, have been designated by SeAH Wind as primary subcontractors to support the operational and logistical services for the Hornsea 3 Offshore Wind Project.
SeAH Wind is expected to provide the monopile foundations for the Hornsea 3 Offshore Wind Project, situated approximately 120 km from the Norfolk Coast in the North Sea. Once finalized, it will become the largest offshore wind farm globally.
As industrial production is set to commence in the upcoming months, Mammoet, Glacier Vitality, and Hutchinson Engineering will facilitate operational and logistical services at the 120-acre site located on the South Bank of Teesworks, UK.
Mammoet has been selected to supply self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs) within the SeAH Wind facility. Their responsibilities encompass the transport of can/cone structures and completed monopiles. By capitalizing on Mammoet’s expertise in heavy transport solutions for offshore wind site logistics, SeAH Wind guarantees the smooth and efficient movement of monopiles, thereby reducing downtime and enhancing overall production efficiency.
Darren Watson, Sales Manager at Mammoet, commented: “We are thrilled to assist SeAH Wind in delivering the future of offshore wind foundations by providing marshalling capabilities that are consistently at the forefront of what can be lifted and transported.”
Glacier Vitality will perform non-destructive testing (NDT) of welds throughout the manufacturing process, assuring the highest quality standards. Their thorough NDT evaluations will enhance the dependability and longevity of the monopiles, ensuring that they comply with both Ørsted’s rigorous standards and international offshore wind regulations.
Hutchinson Engineering has been assigned to provide secondary metal components for the Hornsea 3 project. SeAH Wind sought a UK-based company capable of delivering these complex components in alignment with stringent Ørsted designs and specifications. Hutchinson Engineering’s previous involvement in Ørsted projects, coupled with their expertise, positions them as an excellent partner for this aspect of the project. Source: Mammoet
