Engineering firm COWI has secured a significant contract to undertake the detailed design work for the Anma Offshore Wind project in South Korea. This milestone achievement comes after years of successful collaboration, with COWI previously serving as the owner's engineer for the front-end engineering design of the project.
The Anma Offshore Wind development is strategically located on the west coast of South Korea, in Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do. COWI's Vice President of Markets, Offshore Wind, Sebastian Flores, expressed their commitment to the project, stating, “We have supported Anma in this important undertaking since the very beginning. Its lean and performance-driven team, with support from the right partners, will make it possible to establish one of the first offshore wind farms in South Korea. It has been a privilege to be a part of this throughout all project phases, and we are excited to move on to the detailed design phase together.”
The sentiment was echoed by Ryan Colbeck, EPC Director for Anma Offshore Wind, who emphasized the confidence in COWI's capabilities. Colbeck stated, “Having entrusted COWI with the successful FEED Design for our WTG Foundations, it's great to be able to continue the journey together and see the Foundation Design through to completion. We are confident that together, we can set the standard to which all future offshore wind projects in South Korea will aim for, and that we will continue leading the charge to drive the country's Net Zero ambitions.”
This collaboration marks a pivotal step in establishing South Korea as a key player in the global offshore wind industry, aligning with the nation's ambitions to transition towards clean energy and reduce carbon emissions. The Anma Offshore Wind project signifies a significant milestone in this journey, underpinned by the expertise and dedication of the COWI team.
