Operations Phase • Key characteristics: • The O&M setup is based on synergies with the existing portfolio of Blauwwind shareholders and main contractors. • The project will be operated by Eneco Wind Offshore Operations (EWOO) who are already operating windfarms Amalia and Luchterduinen. • The maintenance of the turbines will be executed by MHI Vestas under a long term service contract. Blauwwind will procure one or two maintenance suppliers for foundation maintenance end of 2019. • AService Operations Vessel (SOV)will be shared with neighboring windfarms in Belgium. The SOV can deploy smaller vessels (daughter crafts) to ensure maximum flexibility. • The SOV in essence is the Blauwwind maintenance base offshore, port calls (parts, crew changes) will be made out of the port ofOostende.
Foundation maintenance • Scope: • Yearly inspections (in- and external) • Coating inspections and repairs • Under water surveys of foundation, scour protection and infield cables • Inspection of the corrosion protection system (ICCP) supplychain@blauwwind.nl
