HOUSTON — InterMoor, a brand in Acteon’s Engineering, Moorings and Foundations Division, has been awarded the engineering design scope and the transportation and installation study for two upcoming offshore floating wind farms offshore Asia.
One wind farm comprises 50 to 80 turbines, each of 15-MW capacity, totaling a capacity of 750 MW to 1,200 MW. The second wind farm has 10 to 20 turbines, each of 15-MW capacity and totals 150-MW to 300-MW capacity.
Water depth in these sites ranges from 80 m to 140 m.
Each wind turbine platform will be moored using hybrid mooring lines, providing station keeping and offsetting extreme and ambient environmental loads.
InterMoor’s scope includes a
- Feasibility study of various anchoring solutions, namely drag anchors, suction and driven pile anchors;
- Detailed assessment of advantages and limitations associated with these anchoring solutions, including operational and commercial aspects;
- Development of transportation and installation methodology for both the foundation, mooring installations and the export and interarray cables; and
- Supporting the project’s scheduling and EPCI budgeting.
