LOC has won a contract to support Marine Warranty Services (MWS) transportation and installation operations for the Jieyang II wind farm development.

Under the terms of the agreement, LOC China will provide all essential marine operations and procedures, including on-site attendance to authorize procedures, with document review and verification.

The scope of work will also include vessel suitability surveys for the period of essential operations to support the project.

The work is scheduled to begin in August 2020.

The Jieyang II wind farm will consist of 64 wind turbines with 350MW of installed capacity, and an offshore booster station of 220kV. The turbines are to be connected to the booster station via 16 circuits of 35kV submarine cable.

The wind farm is owned by State Power Investment Group, one of the major electricity generation companies in mainland China, and Guangdong Electric Power, a company involved in the investment, construction, operation and management of electric power projects, as well as the production and distribution of electric power, mainly in the Guangdong province of China.

“The Jieyang II wind farm is a major project win and our first post the coronavirus pandemic in China. We are delighted to have won this  contract and to be involved. LOC has a strong position in renewables, based on extensive experience and knowhow, which, combined with our understanding and presence in the Chinese market, put us in a good position to win the work and deliver on the project. We are looking forward to getting started and contributing towards the delivery of the Jieyang II wind farm.”
