Sembmarine wins Hornsea maintenance contract

 

Sembcorp Marine subsidiary Sembmarine SLP has secured a Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) contract from Orsted for the Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm Offshore substation and reactive compensation station.

This exclusive contract signifies Sembmarine SLP’s strategic transition from fabricator to maintenance service provider of offshore renewable solutions

The PPM contract involves the maintenance and servicing of the low voltage (LV) and ancillary systems on both assets with provisions for further service extension.

The award of the PPM contract follows the successful fabrication of the OSS and RCS in Singapore by Sembcorp Marine Offshore Platforms and subsequent completion of the offshore installation, hook-up and commissioning of these platforms on-site at the Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm by Sembmarine SLP at end March 2022.

Despite the challenges and constraints, both subsidiaries were able to complete the project on time and within budget, while meeting the customer’s stringent requirements for quality, safety and performance.

The 1.3GW Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm, which became fully operational at end August 2022, is expected to contribute significantly to Orsted’s goal of installing 30GW of offshore wind assets by 2030.

Transmission and Maintenance Manager at Orsted Peter Russell said: “It is great to have Sembmarine SLP on board as our exclusive service partner for the Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm.

“They are perfectly placed to undertake the PPM element of the project following their excellent delivery of the hook-up and commissioning under challenging circumstances. We look forward to partnering the Sembmarine SLP team to advance our renewable energy objectives through our Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm operations.”

Managing Director of Sembmarine SLP Colin Yaxley added: “Our success on the hook-up and commissioning of the Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm platforms fabricated by our sister company, Sembcorp Marine Offshore Platforms in Singapore, has been a large contributing factor to our award for the PPM contract.

This exclusive contract will position Sembmarine SLP as Orsted’s main service provider for Hornsea 2 Offshore Wind Farm’s LV and ancillary systems, enabling enhanced operational efficiency and greater risk mitigation for the developer.”
