BGB Group Global Limited, a UK-headquartered offshore access specialist, has secured the offshore scaffolding and construction services framework agreement for the 1.5 GW Baltica 2 offshore wind farm.
PGE and Ørsted have tasked BGB Group with supporting construction, cable termination and commissioning of four offshore substations for the largest offshore wind farm in the Polish part of the Baltic Sea, which will be delivered through the company's Polish operating company in Gdańsk.
"Baltica 2 is the biggest offshore wind project in the Polish Baltic, and being able to support Ørsted and PGE on it means a great deal to everyone at BGB. We’ve been doing this kind of work on offshore substations and cable campaigns since 2017, and a lot of that has been for Ørsted, so this feels like the next step in a relationship we value."
The framework covers engineered temporary access and construction support across the project’s four offshore substations through to commissioning, expected by the end of 2027
Baltica 2 is located approximately 40 kilometres off the Polish coast near Ustka and Łeba. The project is expected to be fully commissioned by the end of 2027.
Under the framework, BGB will provide engineered temporary access and offshore construction support in Polish waters across the project’s four offshore substations, supporting their construction and commissioning and the termination of array, export and interconnector cables. Services are ordered on a call-off basis over the life of the offshore construction campaign, with the framework running to the end of 2027 and options for extension.
