Rock solid in Taiwan
After an intensive and successful season at the Yunlin offshore wind farm in Taiwan, the final phase of this extensive project has started for Boskalis. With our subsea rock installation vessel Seapiper, we are currently working on the rock installation works at the remaining wind turbine generator locations. This is being done at various depths, ranging from 12 meters to 32 meters below the water surface. Also one survey vessel is still active in the offshore wind farm to monitor the rock installation.
For the first time in months, Boskalis is operating with only one vessel at the Yunlin offshore wind farm. Earlier this year our subsea rock installation vessel Seahorse, the trailing suction hopper dredgers Beachway and Shoreway and the water injection dredging vessel Terra Plana also worked in the offshore wind farm, as well as two survey vessels that monitored the operations. Our vessels carried out a range of activities aimed at enabling the installation of the monopiles and cables in the offshore wind farm, as well as protecting the installed foundations and cables from scouring.
We thank the client for the trust and pleasant cooperation and wish the crew of the Seapiper good luck with the remaining rock installation works.
