The ORLEN Group has selected a contractor for the onshore part of the installation terminal, which will support offshore wind farms.

Construction will begin in October and will be completed in late 2024 or early 2025.

Once completed, the terminal will facilitate the installation of more than 80 offshore wind turbines per year. It will be equipped to handle the Baltic Power project as well as other planned wind ventures.

Its primary function will involve the handling and storage of essential components for offshore wind turbines, including towers, blades, and nacelles.

The terminal will also be able to receive offshore substation topsides weighing up to 24,000 tonnes.

“Once operational, the terminal located in the Świnoujście port will be Poland’s first and one of Europe’s most advanced facilities dedicated to supporting offshore wind projects. The selection of the terminal's contractor marks another significant milestone in the timetable for the project, which already acquired a conditional investment decision in August,” said Daniel Obajtek, CEO and President of the ORLEN Management Board.
