There were more than a few major news on offshoreWIND.biz this week so some updates might have quickly moved out of the viewport. Read our recap and catch up!
Delivery partners have completed the installation of over 328 kilometres of 66 kV inter-array cables for Dogger Bank A, the first phase of the UK’s Dogger Bank Wind Farm, marking the completion of all inter-array cable work for this phase.
The 66 kV XLPE-insulated inter-array cables were manufactured by Hellenic Cables under a contract with Dogger Bank tier-one contractor DEME Offshore.
The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) has issued an Approval in Principle (AiP) to CLS Wind for its wind turbine assembly system.
The patented elevator-style assembly is said to promise easier, safer, and faster wind turbine and nacelle installation and maintenance, without the use of large cranes and heavy-lift barges or vessels.

The Fugro Quest vessel, operated by Fugro, is en route to the northeast coast of England to begin geotechnical survey work on the site of the proposed Dogger Bank South (DBS) West, one of two proposed DBS offshore wind farms.
Fugro Quest, launched in 2022, left Falmouth on 23 July 2024 to initiate geotechnical assessments at the DBS West offshore wind farm site, located over 100 kilometres off the northeastern coast of England.
Norway’s Wind Catching Systems (WCS) has received Approval in Principle (AiP) from DNV for its 40 MW Windcatcher design, which the company says is an important milestone on the route to commercial demonstration of its Windcatcher technology.
The objective of an AiP is to perform a third-party technical evaluation of a design to assess whether there are any conceptual showstoppers or rule compliance aspects that need improvement. As such, a successful AiP indicates the likelihood of the design meeting applicable rule criteria for future DNV classification, according to WCS.
