Jan De Nul has announced that it has completed the offshore Trianel Windpark Borkum II (TWBII) project in the German North Sea. All 32 wind turbines have been installed and mechanically completed.Jan De Nul Group’s Jack-Up Offshore Installation Vessel (JUIV) Taillevent started the wind turbine installation works in the summer of 2019 but had to leave mid-February 2020 to undertake commitments in Taiwan. The installation works of the remaining wind turbines were completed with the JUIV Blue Tern.
Jan De Nul Group and its Subcontractor Global Wind Service subsequently finalised the mechanical completion of the 32 wind turbines in order to have them ready for commissioning by TWBII.
Jan De Nul Group was awarded the wind turbine installation works by Senvion in December 2017, after which the start of the WTG installation works was delayed due to Senvion’s insolvency proceedings. The offshore wind farm Trianel Wind Park Borkum (Phase II) comprises 32 offshore wind turbines of 6.33 MW each. The scope of Jan De Nul Group included both the offshore installation of the wind turbines and the mechanical completion works.
