Bladt Industries has begun work on its new Danish manufacturing facility to cater for offshore wind substation projects in the pipeline.

“We will get 110,000 new m2 - roughly the equivalent of 15 football pitches.“ Søren Schlott Mikkelsen.

“60,000 m2 is set aside for use by the future OSSs – with full infrastructure - technical building with electricity, compressed air and water - and collection of all wash water from OSS sinks, so we treat this in an environmentally sound manner.

"All infrastructure is carried out in grounded guide pipes with the possibility of replacement and additional infrastructure.”

In the scope of the expansion in Aalborg, there is also an extension of the project road to a width of 30m, with full asphalt pavement so that substations can be transported directly to and from the port without having to go through the rest of the production area.

The load-out platform on the quay is being expanded, so that you can drive directly onto barges and ships. Water depth at the load-out platform will be increased from the current 9.7 meters to 11 meters.

“Another 50,000m2 will be used for storage and assembly space for large parts - for example for external platforms and boat landings,” added Søren Schlott Mikkelsen, Operations Management Office, Bladt Industries.

“The first parts will be arriving later this year.”
