GeoSea chosen to install Moray East substructures

GeoSea has signed an agreement for the engineering, procurement, construction and installation of about 100 wind turbine foundations and three offshore substation platform foundations.

The contract for GeoSea, which is the DEME Group’s specialist for complex offshore marine engineering projects, also involves the transport and installation of three offshore substation platforms for the Moray East offshore wind farm in the Moray Firth region of Scotland.

The contract award is subject to financial close that is expected to take place in the second half of 2018.

Moray Offshore Windfarm East is a joint venture company owned by EDP Renewables (77 per cent) and ENGIE (23 per cent).

The project was recently awarded a contract for Difference (CfD) by the UK Government.
