Saipem, a global leader in the engineering and construction of major projects for the energy and infrastructure sectors, has been awarded two offshore projects worth a total of $500 million in Saudi Arabia, under an existing long-term agreement (LTA) with Saudi oil giant Aramco. The scope of work under the first project includes provision of… Read More
By Alex Brown The five East Coast offshore wind projects that recently won court victories over the Trump administration have restarted construction, but they make up just a small fraction of Atlantic states’ ambitious plans for offshore wind. And the dozens of projects that have yet to start construction have little chance of advancing while… Read More
Ørsted and PGE have completed the first phase of seabed preparation for the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, a key step ahead of cable installation. Boskalis’ Boka Falcon vessel has cleared and conditioned around 150km of corridors for inter-array cables linking the turbines to offshore substations, with the project now moving into a… Read More
The Trump administration is appealing a federal judge’s order that voided Donald Trump’s day one memorandum pausing offshore wind energy projects, setting up a high-stakes court fight over green energy initiatives the president has long derided. The Department of Justice gave notice of the appeal on Wednesday after Judge Patti Saris sided with 17 blue states… Read More
By Debra K. Rubin The leading U.S. offshore wind energy development conference’s return to New York City in 2026 was more muted in celebrating major project milestones than what was likely envisioned at the first event in 2019, as the sector has coped with the economic realities of launching a new domestic industry and now faces the full… Read More
By Bojan Lepic New York State has killed its fifth offshore wind solicitation after 19 months of delays, citing federal actions under president Donald Trump for torpedoing market confidence and halting new OREC contracts. The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) closed the round on February 13 without awards, despite 25 proposals… Read More
Fabrication is officially underway following the steel‑cutting ceremony for LanWin1, McDermott’s second project in TenneT’s 2GW Program. Well done to our teams for driving progress toward delivering clean offshore wind energy from the North Sea to Germany. Source
Preparing cable routes for a future offshore wind farm is a time-consuming operation. This is certainly true in the Baltic Sea, off the Polish coast. In the very first stage, a geotechnical soil investigation must be carried out to determine the specific ground conditions. Boskalis’ subsidiary Gardline Limited was called in for this activity. Afterwards,… Read More
By Prince As much as wind power has been beneficial for the United States over the years, it has faced the most adversity in 2026 following the Trump Administration’s return to power. There is an increasing number of court cases that are either yet to be decided on or have been halted indefinitely, which has… Read More
By Myrna M. Velasco LONDON, England – As governments double down on offshore wind from Europe to the Asian markets, discussions are no longer just about gigawatt installations and climate targets. They have shifted toward a harsher reality: escalating curtailments that leave turbines idle and waste billions in consumer money, while cybersecurity and data sovereignty… Read More
MacGregor has been selected to supply a substantial 400-tonne Active Heave Compensated (AHC) subsea crane for a new 127-metre Floating Wind Farm Construction Vessel (FWCV). Purpose-built for the burgeoning floating offshore wind market, the new vessel is a significant development for the industry and requires one of the largest subsea AHC cranes ordered in recent years. The… Read More
Theme: Nuclear Propulsion on (Dredged) Ships You are hereby invited to the CEDA-NL/Maritime & Offshore NL club evening on Thursday 19 March 2026 in Alblasserdam. During this club evening we dive into the world of nuclear energy on board ships. What does this technology mean for the maritime sector? What about the technology, the practical… Read More
By Ari Natter and Jonathan Ferro The Trump administration plans to appeal a series of court rulings blocking efforts to stop construction of offshore wind farms, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said Wednesday. “Absolutely we are,” Burgum told Bloomberg Television. “There will be further discussion on this.” U.S. judges have overturned five orders by the Trump administration to halt… Read More
US President Donald Trump swept back into office on a mission to stop the domestic offshore wind industry in its tracks. That is actually something any idiot could accomplish with the swipe of a pen. All you need to do is yank the federal leases that offshore developers depend on, and — oh, wait. Somebody… Read More
By Aaron Larson Record capacity, record auctions, and record-breaking turbines mark a maturing industry, but U.S. policy reversals and macroeconomic headwinds threaten to slow momentum. The global offshore wind industry achieved significant milestones in 2024 and early 2025, with installed capacity surpassing 83 GW and a record-breaking 56 GW awarded in competitive auctions worldwide. Yet,… Read More
