Jan De Nul Group has signed a contract with Vattenfall Vindkraft Kriegers Flak for the transport and installation of 72 Siemens wind turbines Generators of 8.4 MW each for the Kriegers Flak Offshore Wind Farm in Denmark.

“We are proud to have been awarded an offshore wind turbine installation project of this magnitude”, says Philippe Hutse, Offshore Director at Jan De Nul Group. “Our investments in knowhow and equipment for offshore installation works bear fruit”.

The Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm is located 15 kilometres from shore in the Baltic Sea in water depths varying between 15 and 30 metres. In 2017 and 2018, Jan De Nul Group already built, towed and installed two large Gravity Based Foundations for the offshore high voltage stations of the Kriegers Flak wind farm.

Installation works will start in the first quarter of 2021 and will take four months.
