CWind has announced that it is to provide a three months corrosion protection campaign to the offshore wind farm Westermost Rough in the North Sea, owned jointly by DONG Energy, The UK Green Investment Bank and Marubeni Corporation.
CWind will deliver the campaign as an integrated service package that includes a crew transfer vessel as well as a team of technicians to undertake the full range of required tasks. Structural elements of offshore wind farms are continuously exposed to one of the harshest environments. Salt, seawater and marine growth can affect the paintwork on offshore structures both externally and internally. To maintain the integrity of their assets, offshore wind farm owners have to ensure paintworks are intact and the structures are protected against corrosion.
