Seaproof Solutions awarded supply agreement for Cable Protection Systems by Siem Offshore Contractors for the Trianel Windpark Borkum II OWF

The TWB-II offshore windfarm is approximately 40km north of the island of Borkum in the German Bight. The contract was awarded by Siem Offshore Contractors, a wholly owned subsidiary of Siem Offshore, and covers the design and supply of cable protection systems for the inner array grid submarine cables.

This is the 12th offshore wind farm project for Seaproof Solutions, taking the total number of cable protection systems supplied to over 700 units. Seaproof Solutions’ head office and main production site in Bergen, Norway will execute this contract, with manufacturing expected to be completed by 2017 for offshore installation in 2018.
