InterMoor’s Post

The O&M scope of response and recovery begins in the design phase. Do you have a disconnect mechanism in your mooring design. Is it easily accessible, in planned and unplanned vessel interventions. Do you have tow rigging ready, has it be correctly stored and maintained. Are the hull connection points easily accessible for planned and unplanned vessel interventions. InterMoor design, supply and install mooring systems, so we do have practical mooring solutions, as well as Orcaflex mooring solutions.

Pile run during installation could have profound consequences for offshore wind projects ranging from the uncontrolled drop of the piling hammer resulting in dynamic snatch loads on the crane, and in extreme cases, complete loss of the pile. 🌊Acteon Group develops robust installation solutions to minimise and mitigate the risk of pile run. Location-specific driving plans are developed, detailing geotechnical installation risk at each location and hammer operations recommendations. 🤝Learn how we can support your project: https://hubs.ly/Q02Bnc8S0 #pilerun #hammers #fixedwind #offshorewind

A Mooring Emergency Response Plan is the blueprint for readiness in the face of adversity. This comprehensive strategy outlines options and steps to take in the event of a mooring system emergency: - ⛴ Identifying suitable installation vessels - ⚓️ Pinpointing mooring equipment replacement suppliers and their lead times - 📌 Finding suitable mobilisation docks. - ⛓ Determining how many spare mooring components and installation aids should be procured or fabricated, and their maintenance schedule. - 📋 Developing preliminary offshore operations procedures to repair compromised line components and a plan to install new ones. By integrating a Mooring Emergency Response Plan, floating wind farms can significantly reduce repair costs and minimise production losses caused by downtime. ➡️ https://hubs.ly/Q02FNbr90 #floatingwind #offshore #mooring #anchor

Finding more cost-effective solutions that do NOT compromise safety and performance is at the core of what we do. 💰 Have you checked out this blog yet?

Road crossing project for oil flow pipeline in Dorotea field.

An very good example of transfer knowledge. How OWT monopile design and installation is applied to develop new marine and port infrastructure.

In the Lubiatowo area, the first of four directional drills under the coastline, beach, and seabed has been successfully completed, with no direct impact on areas of high ecological value. This phase of the project paves the way for connecting the Baltic Power offshore wind farm to its onshore substation. The 1.4 km tunnel will house power transmission cables. The drilling was conducted using HDD (horizontal directional drilling) technology. The completed section is the first of four underground corridors, designed to hold 30-cm diameter cables. This marks the first large-scale use of HDD technology in Poland. Part of the drilling operation took place offshore, utilising divers and a jack-up rig to complete the underwater section. In total, the drilling will result in the extraction of over 8,000 m³ of spoil from all four drills. According to studies commissioned by Baltic Power, the excavated sand is clean and suitable for beach restoration efforts, helping to repair storm damage sustained over the winter. “In Europe, shoreline crossing drills are typically shorter, and when they are longer, the drill diameter is usually smaller. For Baltic Power, we are undertaking a significant engineering challenge, drilling nearly 1.5 kilometres under dunes, the beach, and the seabed. It’s not possible to drill from just one side, but we are working to ensure minimal environmental disruption,” said Jens Poulsen, Member of the Baltic Power Management Board. #⃣ #offshorewindPOLAND #offshorewindPL | #Poland #BalticSea #windenergy #energy #RES #offshorewind #technology ORLEN S.A.

The floating rig market is slowing down due to high dayrates, longer contract terms, and concerns about global demand, with no new floater contracts announced in October. This slowdown is expected to last through the end of the year and into the first half of 2025, potentially impacting rig utilization, dayrates, and investment in deepwater projects. #offshoredrilling #offshore #oilandgas #rigs
