Correll, a subsidiary of SPIE Global Services Energy, has secured a contract from Jan De Nul to carry out cable termination and testing for RWE's 1 GW Thor offshore wind project in Denmark. The project involves providing 66kV (IAC) termination and testing services for the 72 turbines at the wind farm.
Work is scheduled to begin in July 2025, with a mock-up set for November 2024. Jan De Nul was awarded the Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Installation (EPCI) contracts by RWE in collaboration with Hellenic Cables. The consortium will deliver a comprehensive wire package, which includes the manufacturing and installation of 60 kilometers of export lines along a 30-kilometer route from the offshore wind farm to shore, as well as approximately 200 kilometers of inter-array cables.
Offshore installation and commissioning of the system are anticipated to occur in 2025. The Thor offshore wind farm will be situated in the Danish North Sea, approximately 22 kilometers from the coast of Thorsminde on the west coast of Jutland, with commissioning expected in 2027.
Correll Managing Director Sam Dowey expressed pride in the award, stating that it reflects the professionalism and expertise of the Correll team. He noted enthusiasm for collaborating with Jan De Nul on this and future projects.
Gianluca Petraccia, Wind Power Business Unit Director at SPIE Global Services Energy, also welcomed the contract, highlighting Jan De Nul as a key business partner. He emphasized the honor of contributing to Denmark's largest offshore wind farm, stating that the project aligns with the company's diversification strategy and its commitment to transitioning to low-carbon energy sources.
