Deutsche Windtechnik on Dutch Offshore Wind Farms

Deutsche Windtechnik has signed service agreements for four offshore wind farms in the Netherlands during the first quarter of this year.

The four new contracts are for inspection and maintenance of the Balance of Plant (BoP) at the Gemini, Prinses Amaliawindpark, Eneco Luchterduinen, and the Hollandse Kust Zuid offshore wind farms.

The scope for Deutsche Windtechnik Netherlands includes monopiles and transition pieces of turbines and substations, both internal and external.

In July, the company is scheduled to start delivering its 18-month contract for the Hollandse Kust Zuid, on which offshore construction is set to start this month.

On the 600 MW Gemini offshore wind farm, Deutsche Windtechnik already started working this March, with some nine months left to complete the contract.

For Prinses Amaliawindpark and Eneco Luchterduinen, the company signed five-year agreements, with the work on these projects set to start in the summer.

The work on Prinses Amaliawindpark, Eneco Luchterduinen and Hollandse Kust Zuid will be carried out from the port of IJmuiden, where Deutsche Windtechnik has an office and a warehouse located at the quayside. For the Gemini offshore wind farm, the company is using a DP2 vessel operating out of Eemshaven.
