Siemens Gamesa and Esvagt Dana Reunite at Baltic 2

The service operations vessel Esvagt Dana has returned to the Baltic 2 offshore wind farm in the German Baltic Sea to support Siemens Gamesa during maintenance work.

Esvagt and Siemens Gamesa entered into a 95-day agreement with an option of a further three months.

The vessel provided support in Baltic 2 from November 2019 to August 2020 when the Esvagt Froude, which had been working in the offshore wind farm since Baltic 2 was built, moved on to new tasks at Triton Knoll in the English sector.

”The Baltic 2 offshore wind farm suits the ’Esvagt Dana’ really well and Siemens Gamesa specifically asked whether the ’Esvagt Dana’ was available,” said Ib Henrik Hansen, Head of Commercial at ESVAGT.

”The waters of the Baltic and the low turbine height make the gangway system on the ’Esvagt Dana’ ideally suited to the work that needs doing there. The cooperation we experienced in the wind farm last time we worked together there was excellent, and we are looking forward to building on from that good experience.”

The 288 MW EnBW Baltic 2 wind farm is located about 40 kilometres east of Møns Klint, close to the meeting point of the Danish, Swedish and German maritime borders.

The wind farm’s 80 Siemens SWT-3.6-120 wind turbines have been supplying some 340,000 households with renewable electricity since 2015.
