Global Maritime wins TetraSpar decommissioning role for offshore wind project

Global Maritime has been appointed by TetraSpar Demonstrator ApS to manage the decommissioning of the TetraSpar Demonstrator Project located offshore Karmøy, Norway, with the work involving detailed inspection of the submerged structure after almost five years of operation. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, a global leader in wind turbines with over 140 GW installed worldwide, supplied a 3.6MW turbine for the project. RWE, a leading renewable energy company investing billions of euros worldwide, and TEPCO Renewable Power are investors in the project. The decommissioning work will be overseen by Global Maritime, with Semco Maritime handling onshore work at its Hanøytangen yard. The project began in 2021 and features a floating foundation designed by Stiesdal Offshore.
