On Friday, Jan. 15, 2021, the jackup vessel Bold Tern installed the first turbine on Moray East. In May, she was swapped with the Blue Tern on the project due to a planned crane upgrade on the Bold Tern. The Blue Tern will finish the installations.
The Moray East wind farm is in Moray Firth, 22 km (14 mi) offshore eastern Scotland.
The 950-MW project is being developed by Moray Offshore Windfarm East Ltd., which is a joint venture company owned by Ocean Winds (56.6%), Diamond Green Ltd. (33.4%), and CTG (10%).
