DEME has secured a contract to transport and install 69 wind turbines at the 1GW Zeevonk offshore wind farm in the Netherlands.
The company said its next-generation jack-up offshore transport and installation vessel Norse Energi will carry out the turbine installation work for the first phase of the project.
DEME added that the award follows a foundation installation contract secured in July 2026, expanding its role in the development.
The Zeevonk project is jointly owned by Vattenfall and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) through its Energy Investment Fund I.
The offshore wind farm is planned for the Dutch North Sea, between 63km and 84km from Bergen aan Zee.
Mobilisation activities are expected to begin in 2028, with offshore operations starting shortly afterwards and project completion anticipated in 2029.
The project remains subject to a final investment decision.
DEME business unit director WTG and O&M Martin Degen said: “Following the foundation installation award earlier this summer, this contract further expands DEME’s role in the delivery of the Zeevonk wind farm.
“It also demonstrates how our next-generation vessels support customers in delivering offshore wind projects safely and efficiently.
“We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Vattenfall and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners in delivering this landmark renewable energy project.”
