8 Jacket skirt piles for Hai Long Sub Stations
8 JACKET SKIRT PILES FOR HAI LONG OFFSHORE WIND SUB STATIONS
During May and June 2024, the CAPE VLT-640 Tandem was deployed to install 8 piles with a diameter of 4.4 meter, a length of 103.5 meter and a maximum weight of 935t for two offshore sub stations for phase one of the Hai Long Offshore Wind project in Taiwanese waters.
CDWE’s Green Jade, Taiwan’s first 4,000t crane vessel with DP capabilities, was used for the project. The main reason for choosing for the CAPE VLT was to prevent pile run. However, the efficiency of using the CAPE VLT was proven during the project as well, with the quickest driving time of just 7 minutes for one of the piles to 35m penetration depth.
