Fred. Olsen Windcarrier Wins Contract for Two Taiwanese Offshore Wind Farms

After finishing installations on Yunlin offshore wind farm, also located in Taiwan, Brave Tern will commence the transportation and installation of the MHI Vestas Offshore V174-9.5MW wind turbines selected for the Changfang and Xidao offshore wind farms (CFXD). The project is divided into two phases across 2022 and 2023 and will have a capacity of 600 MW with a total of 62 wind turbines.

CSBC-DEME Wind Engineering says: “As both experienced contractors within the industry, Fred. Olsen Windcarrier and CSBC-DEME Wind Engineering (CDWE) will share and combine their extensive knowledge base and experience to deliver a ´state of the art’ performance to Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and to the Taiwanese offshore wind industry."

 “We are extremely proud to win another transport and installation job in the growing Taiwanese offshore wind market. CFXD is an important project for us and will strengthen our position and commitment to the growing Taiwanese market and the APAC region in general. Last year Fred. Olsen Ocean opened an office in Taiwan to bring the group’s extensive experience from Europe to the region. First step will be in April when Brave Tern heads towards Taiwan. We look forward to growing the local capabilities and the Taiwanese supply chain as well as supporting our customers in the region”, says Casper Toft, CCO, Fred. Olsen Windcarrier.
