DEME’s offshore installation vessel Green Jade completed its first heavy-lift installation assignment in Taiwan by installing the 31st and final jacket foundation at the Zhong Neng wind farm. Utilising its 4,000-tonne capacity crane, Green Jade played a crucial role in achieving this significant milestone.

This installation follows the earlier completion of the placement of 93 pin piles using its jack-up vessel, Apollo.

Located offshore Changhua, the 300 MW Zhong Neng project is one of Taiwan’s first locally developed landmark wind farms. CDWE, the Taiwanese joint venture between CSBC and DEME, completed the foundation installation on schedule. This achievement keeps the project on track to be the first in Taiwan delivered according to the original timeline, meeting all established milestones.

The completion of the project is attributed to the collaborative efforts and open communication between CDWE’s local engineers, DEME’s European technical team, and the client, Zhong Neng.
