Cadeler to install wind turbines at German offshore wind farms
The contract includes the transport and installation of at least 48 11MW turbines to be installed adjacent to Ørsted's existing offshore wind farms Borkum Riffgrund 1 and Borkum Riffgrund 2, and near Gode Wind 1 and 2.
Cadeler will use its installation vessel Wind Osprey, which will be equipped with a new and improved main crane. Cadeler will replace and upgrade both main cranes on its two O-Class vessels, making them suitable for this and similar projects.
Cadeler’s CEO, Mikkel Gleerup said: “We are very pleased to partner with Ørsted on this project and to be awarded the preferred supplier status, as it demonstrates the competitiveness of our upgraded O-class vessels”.
Once completed, the Gode Wind 3 and Borkum Riffgrund 3 wind farms will have a combined total capacity of more than 1 GW. The projects are scheduled to be fully commissioned in 2024 and 2025 respectively, subject to Ørsted's final investment decision.
