According to Odfjell Oceanwind, the strategic partnership enables the company to accelerate its business plan of supporting and partnering with offshore wind developers in realising floating offshore wind projects based on proprietary Deepsea technologies.
At the beginning of this year, the company launched the Deepsea Star floating wind foundation, a column-stabilised, semi-submersible steel design with centre wind turbine tower, designed to take the weights and loads from the 15 MW turbines which will become available for floating wind from 2025 and onwards.
The design has already been selected for the GoliatVIND and UtsiraVIND projects and is currently considered for several Innovation and Targeted Oil & Gas (INTOG) and ScotWind projects and for a total of 50 GW of projects globally.
