Ocean Installer joins offshore floating wind alliance   

Thursday, March 13 2025

Wind Energy – Floating Wind

Ocean Installer has been appointed by Cerulean Winds to join the alliance of companies developing the Aspen floating offshore wind (FLOW) project in the North Sea.

Ocean Installer’s addition to the alliance is vital to driving down cost of installation, a critical component within FLOW development. The company’s existing fleet of vessels and a highly skilled workforce, developed over decades working in subsea oil and gas construction, can be transferred to the FLOW sector without significant adaptation.

Furthermore, Ocean Installer will work in conjunction with fellow alliance member Haventus, owners of the Port of Ardersier, on dry storage of the structures, batched installation and quick connect/disconnect systems to optimise processes and create a convention for how future FLOW projects are installed.

“For FLOW to be successful in the North Sea we’ve got to use expertise and experience from the oil and gas sector to turbo-charge the speed of cost reduction – that is what Ocean Installer are bringing to our project,” said Dan Jackson, Founding Director of Cerulean Winds.

Ocean Installer will provide proven engineering expertise and installation services, post-FID, for the mooring system installation, inter array cables system and marshalling of the floating units during the fabrication phase, tow-out and hook up.
