Mammoet, a leader in engineered
heavy lift and transport services, has secured contracts for two large
offshore wind projects in the United States, both of which begin in 2023.
Together, the two contracts cover a range of port scopes, including the
load-in, load-out, handling and temporary storage of XXL monopiles, plus
the pre-assembly of turbines in a US marshaling port.
Mammoet’s vast experience
in offshore wind, presence in the USA, and long track record in supplying
specialized equipment as well as tailor-made solutions have proven decisive
to confirm these awards. With more than 30 years of experience working
in the United States, these will further strengthen our experience in the
US Offshore Wind Market.
“Offshore wind in
the United States has been a long time coming. Our Mammoet colleagues have
been executing these projects globally for some time, so this is an exciting
opportunity to leverage the combination of our technical experience with
our local market experience,” said Rick Bohne, Jr., Director of Sales
& Marketing for Mammoet in the USA & Mexico.
Mammoet has a long
standing history and presence in the US market. With more than 30 years
of experience in the United States and over a dozen local branches, Mammoet
employs approximately 800 US employees.
Mammoet’s recent experience
in the offshore wind sector includes the load-in, load-out and transport
of jacket structures for Seagreen Offshore Wind Farm in Scotland, and component
handling, storage, transport and crane lifting to assemble Hywind Tampen;
the world’s largest floating wind farm.
Furthermore, Mammoet
is contracted to supply onshore heavy lifting and transport for the staging
and assembly of turbine components for Dogger Bank Wind Farm in the United
Kingdom. Lastly, Mammoet is also contracted to supply onshore heavy lifting
and transport for the offloading, staging and installation of turbine components
in France.
