Certex UK has won a three-year contract for inspection and maintenance of over 150 turbine generators across two offshore wind farms. Certex was awarded the contract by Equinor, operator of the Dudgeon and Sheringham Shoal offshore wind farms off the Norfolk coast.
The full scope of work covers the statutory inspection and maintenance of all Transmission and Generation Assets across both Wind Farms Works and will include all turbine mounted safety equipment (TMSE) and personal service lifts, in addition to a fleet of loader and davit cranes. Certex will supply all lifting equipment, accessories, and consumables to Equinor, while looking after the balance of plant (BOP) base and service operation vessel (SOV) equipment. The company will provide permanent site rotations, 365-days-a-year, under the supervision of Terry Hoenes, divisional manager—renewables, at Certex.
