Major milestone reached as the OSS Jasmund topside and jacket are now underway
Both the jacket and the topside of OSS Jasmund have sailed away for their installation site as part of the Ostwind 3 grid connection project in the German Baltic Sea. The complete substation is now ready for offshore installation.
The HSI consortium, comprising HSM Offshore Energy, Smulders, and Iv, is pleased to announce the successful sail-away of the OSS Jasmund topside last Saturday and jacket Tuesday after years of close collaboration. The topside was built at the Stormpolder yard of HSM Offshore Energy, while the jacket was constructed at Smulders’ yard in Vlissingen. Both structures were loaded out safely approximately two weeks earlier.
These sail-away operations mark the final major steps before offshore installation. Heerema Marine Contractors will take on this task shortly. Once completed, the wind farm will have an installed capacity of 315 MW.
The Jasmund Offshore Substation is only the first of three being developed by the consortium on behalf of 50Hertz. We will continue our efforts to deliver the substations Zingst and Darß for the OST-6-1 grid connection project.
