About

Temporary Works Design

Experts in the best solution

TWD specializes in the design of tailored structures and tools for offshore projects. Working from concept to detail, TWD provides creative designs for the offshore wind market. Our design philosophy is to think beyond the initial questions asked. Whether the challenge is simple or complex, a seafastening, lifting tool or monopile gripper, our functional design method leads to smart, practical and cost-effective solutions.

Optimise work offshore

Offshore wind installation projects have a highly repetitive character, which makes their success largely depending on the chosen installation methods. Due to our experience, we understand the critical aspects of each transport & installation cycle. With logical deck layouts, innovative and practical handling tools and well-thought installation procedures, we can contribute to a significant reduction of the offshore cycle time. Together with our sister company Barge Master we are experts in motion compensation and bespoke solutions that increase workability offshore

Foundation installation equipment

TWD assists multiple contractors with the development of their foundation installation equipment. As an example, TWD’s solutions on DEME’s vessel ‘Innovation’, enable DEME to install monopile foundations at record speed.

TWD engineers succeeded in developing a unique pile gripper, which excels in versatility and piling accuracy. TWD used their highly effective ‘functional design method’ to incorporate all required functionalities into a logical gripper, but also in highly efficient upend tool and seafastening designs. Combining the in-house expertise of structural-, mechanical- and hydraulic design, allows TWD to integrate the input of different disciplines into optimally functioning monopile installation equipment.
