Seaway7 awarded offshore wind contract in the UK
Luxembourg – 6 November 2024 - Subsea 7 S.A.
(Oslo Børs: SUBC, ADR: SUBCY) today announced the award to Seaway7,
part of the Subsea7 Group, of a substantial1 contract by
ScottishPower Renewables for the transport and installation of the
inter-array cables of the East Anglia TWO offshore wind
project.
ScottishPower Renewables’ £4 billion East Anglia
TWO offshore windfarm will be located around 33 kilometres from the
east coast of England in the Southern North Sea. Successful in the
UK Government’s contracts for difference (CfD) allocation round in
September 2024, it will contribute up to 960 MW of clean, green
energy – enough to power the equivalent of almost one million
homes. It is one of three consented offshore wind farm developments
that, together with the operational East Anglia ONE, will form the
East Anglia Hub, which will ultimately deliver 4,000 MW of
renewable energy generation capacity.
Seaway7’s scope of work for East Anglia TWO
includes the engineering, supply and installation of the 64
inter-array cables. Execution of the scope will be led from
Seaway7’s Aberdeen office in the UK, with offshore activities
scheduled to commence in 2027.
Stuart Fitzgerald, CEO Seaway7, said: “This
award builds upon our leading position in the UK and represents a
significant contribution to the UK’s renewable target. With this
project we also look forward to continuing our relationship with
ScottishPower Renewables on our second East Anglia Hub project
together, with East Anglia THREE currently in execution.”
Charlie Jordan, ScottishPower Renewables’ CEO
said: “It’s great to confirm so much of our supply chain for
East Anglia TWO on the back of achieving our CfD and we look
forward to building on the positive working relationship we already
have with Seaway7 on East Anglia THREE. Getting our EA TWO supply
chain in place through confirmed contracts like this means we’re
ready to hit the ground – and water! – running and bring another
gigawatt of clean, green energy to life, making a real difference
for people, places and planet for decades to come.”
(1) Subsea7 defines a substantial contract as being
between USD 150 million and USD 300 million.
