The first transition piece has been installed at the Hornsea Project One offshore wind farm. Each one weighs 400 tons and is to be installed by A2Sea’s vessel SEA INSTALLER.

Offshore construction recently kicked off at Hornsea Project One with the installation of the first monopile at the end of January. The monopile installation is being carried out by GeoSea’s jack-up installation vessel, Innovation. It can carry up to four monopiles at a time, each one is 65m long, weighs around 800t and has a diameter of 8.1m.

Poised to become the world’s biggest wind farm, the Ørsted owned project is anticipated to produce enough clean energy for well over one million UK homes. It is located 120km off the Yorkshire coast and will consist of 174 turbines due to be commissioned in 2020.
