Fred. Olsen Windcarrier (FOWIC) has secured a firm and unconditional contract with RWE for a vessel for the installation of 72 offshore wind turbine generators (WTGs) at the Thor offshore wind farm in the Danish North Sea.
FOWIC will make use of one of the two Tern class installation vessels. RWE will build the Thor Offshore wind farm in the Danish North Sea, approximately 22 kilometers from Thorsminde on the west coast of Jutland. Installation of the turbines at sea is expected to begin in 2026, and are planned to be carried out from the Port of Esbjerg, Denmark. The wind farm is scheduled to reach full operation in 2027.
