Offshore modules for wind turbines
OFFSHORE: Over the course of 2010, Blue Water Shipping has handled logistics in connection with wind turbine foundation lifting modules for Danish offshore company Lovenborg Industries.
The recently developed modules are utilized to lift wind turbine foundations from a horizontal to a vertical position.
The assignment started back in the spring of 2010, when the 135 mts heavy modules were loaded onto specially modified supply vessels, which had been fitted with a rail system to accommodate the heavy modules.
End of November 2010, Blue Water demobilized one of the two modules and returned it to the manufacturer. Module loading was carried out by Blue Water Stevedoring, with road transport to the manufacturer being arranged by the oil & energy department at Blue Water Esbjerg.
