AALST, Belgium – Jan De Nul Group’s jackup vessel Vole au vent has installed 72 turbines for Vattenfall’s Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm in the Danish sector of the Baltic Sea.
In 2017 and 2018, Jan De Nul Group designed, built, and installed two gravity-based foundations for the wind farm’s high-voltage substations. Its crane vessel Rambiz installed the 8,000- and 10,000-metric ton concrete structures.
Located 15-40 km (9.3-25 mi) off the Danish east coast, the 604-MW Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm is expected to be fully operational by the end of the year. It is expected to provide the annual electricity needs of about 600,000 Danish households.
