Palfinger Marine has received a follow-up order for the Hai Long offshore wind farm in Taiwan. The Hai Long order entails an equipment package for two substations.
These will be equipped with two stiff boom cranes with an outreach of 26 meters, four life raft davits, and four fixed boom cranes. The latter will be used to lift materials from the Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) onto the offshore substation. The cranes come with Palfinger’s control system, enabling wireless operation using a remote control that displays all relevant information on a screen. Palfinger Marine was already selected to supply the wind farm turbine service platforms with lifting solutions. The 1,022 MW Hai Long offshore wind farm is being built approximately 50 kilometers off Taiwan's coast.
