Ørsted completes installation of foundations at Greater Changhua 2b

The process was completed in over a month.

Ørsted has installed all 24 suction bucket jacket (SBJ) foundations at the Greater Changhua 2b Offshore Wind Farm.

In a statement, the company said the installation was completed ahead of schedule after  the first foundation was installed in early April.

The installation of the suction bucket jacket foundations was carried out by a heavy-lift vessel from Heerema Marine Contractors. Each was installed using suction bucket technology, which requires no piling and allows the structure to be firmly anchored to the seabed.

This method reduces the noise impact on the marine environment.

Meanwhile, foundation installation at the Greater Changhua 4 Offshore Wind Farm is also ongoing.
