DNV GL is working with Equinor to undertake a third-party verification study of the Hywind Tampen floating wind farm in Norway.
Situated approximately 200 kilometres west of Florø, Norway, the Hywind Tampen project, will consist of 11 8MW turbines capable of meeting 35% of the annual power demand of the Snorre and Gullfaks oil fields. The study will ensure that the floating wind turbines comply with the applicable codes and standards for floating offshore wind and will focus on the review and verification of the design of the substructure, tower and mooring system as well as critical load conditions and global design parameters.
