Cape Holland has announced its involvement in the Hai Long offshore wind farm project in Taiwan, in collaboration with CDWE. Cape Holland will supply its CAPE Vibro Lifting Tools for the installation of pin piles for the jacket foundations.
The CAPE VLT-640 Single will be used initially for the installation of the jacket pin piles and will then be converted to a Tandem version for the installation of the OSS (Offshore Sub Station) foundation piles. The project will take place in the Taiwan Strait, off the west coast of Taiwan and will be carried out using CDWE’s Green Jade. The Hai Long offshore wind farm is a 1,044 MW project consisting of two licensed areas, Site 18 and Site 19, with a total of 73 next-generation turbines installed on 3-legged jacket foundations. The project will be developed in three stages, Hai Long 2A, Hai Long 2B, and Hai Long 3, with a timeline from 2023 to 2025. The water depth for the installation is between 41-56 meters and the installation campaign for the jacket piles and OSS piles is scheduled from March 2024 to July 2025. CDWE is a joint venture between Deme Offshore and CSBC Corporation.
