ESBJERG, Denmark — Semco Maritime has secured a balance-of-plant, operations and maintenance service contract for the Butendiek wind farm in the North Sea, 32 km from the Island of Sylt near the German-Danish maritime median line.

Semco Maritime will enter the 10-year agreement from Jan. 1, 2024, with Siemens Gamesa holding the contract and full turbine maintenance and offshore logistics responsibility toward owner OWP Butendiek GmbH & Co. KG.
The balance-of-plant service work streams will include scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and inspections above water on the offshore substation and its foundation, and on the 80 wind turbine generator foundations.
