Cadeler announced that it has entered into a preferred supplier agreement with an undisclosed client for an offshore wind project. The scope of the contract includes the transportation and installation of transition pieces and monopiles at a large wind farm located in European waters.

The company stated that the installation campaign is expected to begin in the first half of 2028. The agreement, however, is currently subject to the client reaching a final investment decision on the offshore project.

The operations will be carried out using two vessels from the company’s fleet. Cadeler specified that one of these would come from its new series of wind installation vessels.

This project represents the first time the company will provide full-scope foundation transportation and installation services outside the United Kingdom. Mikkel Gleerup, the Chief Executive Officer of Cadeler, stated that the agreement marks an expansion of the company's project pipeline regarding foundation scopes.

He further noted that the company is focused on broadening its experience in these types of activities across different jurisdictions.
