Deutsche Windtechnik In Charge of Nordergründe OWF Maintenance

Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore and Consulting is now responsible for the majority of equipment services as well as technical management for Nordergründe offshore wind farm.

The wind farm, for which construction work and operation is scheduled to start in 2016, will be equipped with 18 Senvion® 6.2 wind turbines and an offshore substation.

The early legal integration of the independent service companies will ensure the preparation and implementation of a sustainable and cost-efficient service concept with consideration for life-cycle costs.

The maintenance specialists received the contract from the wind farm planners, project planners and operators at wpd.

“First of all, we will provide independent management for the entire land-based and underwater wind farm operations. Our duties will also include maximum maintenance support for manufacturers,” said Jens Landwehr, Managing Director of Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore and Consulting.

The legally contracted duties provided by the offshore service specialists at Nordergründe offshore wind farm include technical management, technical project management, coordination of divers, logistics (management of CTV crew transfer vessels), basic structural maintenance and OSS, in addition to anti-corrosion work, underwater work and QHSE management.

Independent experts from Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore and Consulting will already be supervising the large-scale project management during the building, production and commissioning stages.
