DEME has secured three contracts for the installation of monopile foundations, inter-array cables, and the export cable at the BC-Wind offshore wind farm in Poland.
The combined contracts are valued between $174 million and $350 million (€150 million and 300 million).
BC-Wind, developed by offshore wind firm Ocean Winds, a 50-50 joint venture between EDP Renewables and ENGIE, is located approximately 23 km off the Polish Baltic Sea coast.
With a planned capacity of up to 390 MW, the wind farm will generate clean electricity for around 500,000 households per year.
DEME will deploy its offshore installation vessel Orion to install 27 monopile foundations - 26 monopiles for the wind turbines and one foundation for the offshore substation (OSS).
Equipped with a motion compensated pile gripper, a 5,000-ton crane and advanced ballasting systems, Orion is designed to handle the largest foundations with precision and efficiency, even in challenging conditions.
The inter-array and export cable contracts cover the full scope from engineering through to installation.
The export cable contract will be carried out in a consortium with Hellenic Cables. DEME will deploy its cable installation vessels Living Stone and Viking Neptun for the works. With financial close completed, installation works are scheduled
