KENC Engineering has secured multiple contract awards from a leading, undisclosed transport and installation contractor in relation to a UK offshore wind project.
The contracts entail engineering scopes to outfit a purpose-built jack-up vessel to contribute with the safe and efficient installation of the monopiles for the UK project.
KENC’s scope of work includes the design and engineering of a hose reel platform that houses the HPU (hydraulic power unit), a hose saddle, a control cabin work frame and a gangway platform.
The challenge was to come up with custom-made solutions that were light, stable and strong to fit the deck requirements of the jack-up vessel.
KENC has achieved this by the close cooperation of our design and finite element analysis team to make the structure strong, light and safe.
“We’re proud to work with the contractor on these scopes.
“This collaboration allows us to leverage our experience of vessel outfitting and mobilization support for offshore wind installation projects.” said Eric Buining, managing director of KENC Engineering.
Engineering work is already well underway, with completion scheduled for the upcoming project in 2025.
