Eager.one has been awarded a contract to design and supply the South Korean offshore wind specialist Samkang M&T with a remote-operated Jacket Lifting Tool (JLT).
The JLT will be able to handle jackets of up to 2500 tonnes that will be moved from the yard onto transport vessels.
According to the manufacturer, the JLT will be used for upcoming offshore wind projects in Asia.
This will be Eager.one’s first project for Samkang M&T.
Samkang M&T is currently responsible for manufacturing and delivering a total of 52 jacket foundations for the Hai Long 2b and Hai Long 3 offshore wind farms in Taiwan. The delivery of the jackets is expected to be completed by December 2024.
In 2019, Danish offshore wind developer Ørsted signed a contract with Samkang M&T for the supply of 28 jacket foundations for the 900 MW Changhua 1 and 2a offshore wind projects in Taiwan.
