euskalforging has been awarded one of the contracts for Equinor’s Hywind Tampen floating offshore wind project. The Hywind Tampen project will be installed offshore Norway and will supply electrical power to the nearby oil and gas platforms Gullfaks and Snorre. The combined effect from the 11 turbines will be 88 megawatts and will replace about 35 percent of the five platforms’ energy demand.
With this project, euskalforging keeps its role as key supplier for large flanges for floating platforms, which are the future of the offshore wind sector.
