    As another example, for KENC’s sea-fastening scope on the Saint-Brieuc project, the company said several support vessels were mobilized at different stages to carry out the work as it progressed, from drilling of foundations, grouting, installation of casing and then the installation of jackets.

    KENC has a contract to perform engineering for the sea fastening of two large jackets for an offshore high-voltage station.

    This is part of a 927-MW wind farm development in the Baltic Sea.

    KENC’s scope covers design and engineering of the sea fastening for the 33-m-tall steel jackets, each weighing 3,700 metric tons.

    During transport to the offshore site, they will be positioned vertically on a barge. The KENC-designed lower and upper grillage system will support the jackets during the voyage.

    Engineering work should finish in November.
