OWC Conducts East Anglia ONE Offshore Readiness Assessment

Offshore Wind Consultants (OWC) is set to provide offshore construction readiness assessment for the ScottishPower Renewables East Anglia ONE offshore wind farm.

OWC, part of Aqualis, will conduct an offshore readiness assessment to ensure the project is ready to complete the offshore work. The future offshore work includes installation of piles, jackets, export cable and offshore substations.

The company did not disclose the value of the contract.

The East Anglia One will consist of 102 wind turbines with a total installed capacity of 714 MW, the equivalent of powering more than 500,000 UK homes.

“OWC will support the East Anglia ONE project in undertaking a thorough construction readiness assessment. This will ensure the project benefits from our extensive knowledge across the offshore wind industry in learning lessons from previous projects and with an aim to help the East Anglia ONE project to be delivered as safely and efficiently as possible,” said Ian Bonnon, managing director of Offshore Wind Consultants.

OWC will primarily execute the project with personnel from its London office, with some support from its Hamburg office and sister company Aqualis Offshore’s office in Sandefjord, Norway.
