The last of the 111 transition pieces has now been installed on monopile no. 111 in Anholt Offshore Wind Farm. This means that all foundations for Anholt Offshore Wind Farm are in place, and DONG Energy is well on its way in the construction of Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm. The next step is
Nord Stream conducts an extensive environmental and socio-economic monitoring programme in relation to the construction and operation of the natural gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea. Reports are published aligned to national legislations in each country through whose waters the pipeline passes. At the
Scana Propulsion has signed a contract with Kleven Maritime to supply propulsion systems for a supply ship of the type SALT 100 PSV for the shipowner Ugland Offshore in Grimstad. Also, the contract includes an option for one additional vessel. The vessel is designed by Salt Ship Design and the prope
Based on its recent analysis of the wave energy generation market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Eco Wave Power with the 2012 European Frost & Sullivan Award for New Product Innovation for developing and implementing an all-round solution for effective energy harvesting from waves. “Driven by the ener
Two Van der Velden® ATLANTIC rudders in combination with Van der Velden COMMANDER™ ram-type steering gear have been installed on board the dredger Ambiorix. Van der Velden Marine Systems will exhibit at the SMM 2012 International Trade Fair in Hamburg. The fair will be held from 4 until 7 September

In most coastal and estuarine settings the seabed elevation (water depth/bathymetry) changes due to the processes of sediment and sediment deposition on a daily basis. More pronounced changes occur when wave energy can penetrate to the seabed during winter storms. Changes in seabed level greater tha
