Progress on the BorWin6 Project continues with the successful completion of a fabrication yard milestone in Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates. Mammoet has completed the transport, loadout and mooring of the 5,461-ton offshore jacket foundation, set to support the BorWin6 offshore converter platform BorWin kappa in the German North Sea.
Developed by TenneT and delivered by McDermott International, the BorWin6 offshore grid connection is a 980-megawatt high voltage direct current connection that will transmit offshore wind energy from the German North Sea to the mainland, strengthening grid capacity and supporting the transition to sustainable power generation.
To support McDermott’s engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) scope for the BorWin6 topside and jacket, Mammoet has been selected as a subcontractor to provide critical jacking, transport and loadout services. For the jacket delivery milestone, Mammoet transported the structure using 216 axle lines of SPMTs powered by four power pack units, providing the required drive power to move and steer the load under full control during loadout.
Mammoet winches supported safe mooring management during critical quay activities. The jacket and its foundation piles have now been secured for sailaway to Europe for the next phase of the project.
