Wind Energy – Acquisition
Odfjell Oceanwind (OOW) has completed the acquisition of Ørsted`s 80% share in the Salamander Offshore Wind Farm.
OOW will work together with the remaining shareholders of the Salamander Offshore Wind Farm, consisting of Simply Blue Group and Subsea7 to continue the development of the project into a demonstration project for commercial-scale floating offshore wind. The new consortium has been welcomed by Crown Estate Scotland.
Salamander is an innovative 100 MW floating offshore wind project in Scotland, located 35 kilometres off Peterhead. The project was awarded an Exclusivity Agreement for a seabed lease by Crown Estate Scotland in the INTOG leasing round and recently received section 36 consent from the Scottish Government.
