DOF Subsea has been awarded a contract for Skandi Constructor for Siemens on the Galloper offshore wind farm project in the North Sea.

The contract ensures that the vessel is utilized until the end of the year, the Oslo-listed company noted.

Siemens is to supply, install and commission 56 wind turbines for the Galloper wind farm project.
