Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Seajacks-Zaratan

WindMW GmbH has proudly announced the successful installation of the last turbine and the offshore converter station at the Meerwind Süd windfarm, boasting a total capacity of 288 MW, located in the German North Sea. The construction effort was significantly supported by the installation vessel 'Seajacks Zaratan', which played a crucial role in bringing this ambitious renewable energy project to fruition.

On November 15, 2012, the jackup rig 'Seajacks Zaratan' was forced to dock at the Steubenhöft in Cuxhaven due to technical difficulties. This vessel, under contract with WindMW GmbH Bremerhaven, is engaged in the transportation and installation of monopiles and transition pieces for a wind farm located off the coast of Helgoland. Originally scheduled to berth at its usual location, berth 9.4, the rig's unexpected detour has raised questions about the duration of its stay at Steubenhöft. As of now, agents Sartori & Berger have not provided a timeline for the vessel's repairs.

On August 28, 2012, the offshore construction sector marked a significant milestone as the 'Seajacks Zaratan' became the first large vessel to dock at the newly established berth 9.4 in Cuxhaven. This event also heralded the initiation of construction for the inaugural offshore wind farm off the coast of Heligoland, with Cuxhaven designated as the principal base port. The project falls under the expertise of the British firm Seajacks UK Ltd., which has been commissioned to construct a total of 80 wind turbines for WindMW GmbH, located 23 kilometers north of Heligoland. Each Siemens turbine boasts a capacity of 3.6 MW, culminating in a combined output of 288 MW for the entire installation. The foundations for each turbine consist of a robust 60-meter, 600-ton monopile, which will be affixed to a transition piece, supporting the tower, nacelle, and rotor blades. These monopiles and accompanying transition pieces are produced at Cuxhavener Ambau GmbH's manufacturing facility. The 'Seajacks Zaratan' is set to transport the first three foundation pipes to the site, where they will be driven into the seabed at depths ranging from 22 to 26 meters.
