Dutch marine contractor Van Oord has been hired to build Belgium’s largest offshore wind farm project located approximately 23 kilometers off the Zeebrugge coast in Belgium.
Van Oord announced Friday it has signed a contract with developer Norther to provide Balance of Plant works for the Norther Offshore Wind Farm. With capacity to generate 370 MW, the wind farm will be Belgium’s largest and will deliver renewable energy to approximately 400,000 households.
The Van Oord services will include the engineering, procurement, supply and installation of the 44 WTG foundations, the Offshore High Voltage Station and the inter-array and export cables, and the installation of the turbines. For the transport and installation of the foundations and turbines Van Oord says it intends to deploy its offshore installation vessel Aeolus and cable-laying vessel Nexus.
