Global Marine Systems Energy contracted A&P North East to ready 'Cable Enterprise' for offshore wind farm operations.

The project took 110 days work to make the vessel ready for a contract on the Gwynt y Mor offshore wind farm, situated off the coast of Wales.

Works carried out by A&P North East on the project included; fitting of a carousel to the main deck and under deck stiffening along with  fabrication and installation of a number of items including a forward cow catcher, bulwalk sections, A-Frame seats and plough carriage.

General Manager Ian Douglas commented, “The work scope was completed on time & on budget for Global Marine, We also carried out work assistance to erect & install the carousel.

The complete work package was initially layed out on a general arrangement with changes to the arrangement emerging as the project progressed with class approvals & client requirements.”
