Hywind Scotland Pilot Park Floating Wind Farm

01 Apr 2024: From operational data, Equinor have identified the need for heavy maintenance on all five of the wind farm turbines. This is the first such operation for a floating farm and the safest method to do this is to tow the turbines to shore and execute the operations in sheltered conditions. Equinor will do this during the upcoming summer season and it is expected to take three to four months. Equinor have awarded the contract for the onshore works to the Wergeland group in Gulen, Norway. Wergeland is the closest port with offshore wind experience and sufficient water depth that can service these turbines. The work will be done in close collaboration with the turbine supplier Siemens Gamesa. Work is expected to start in April, with all turbines towed back out in October.
