Beatrice: First X-braces and Upper A-frames Done
Friday 23 December 2016
Beatrice Offshore Wind Farm Limited (BOWL) will be receiving 30 four-legged jacket foundations from Bladt Industries over the next period following a contract award from Seaway Heavy Lifting.
Production has begun at our Lindoe facility which will enable us to continue serial production of foundations at the site.
The first x-braces and upper A-frames for the jacket foundations have been welded. Surface treatment will commence shortly, and the upper structures of the jackets are ready to be painted.
Once finished, the jackets will have a height of up to 75 metres with a weight of approximately 1,035 tons - making them significantly larger than any jacket foundations we have previously made.
