Contract Award

Tekmar Group (AIM: TGP), a leading provider of technology and services for the global offshore energy markets, is pleased to announce a contract award from Global Offshore to supply Cable Protection Systems (CPS) for the Arcadis Ost 1 offshore wind farm in Germany.

Arcadis Ost 1 is a 257 MW offshore wind farm under development by Parkwind Ost GmbH. The wind farm will be located in the Baltic Sea, northeast of the island of Rügen in Germany. Once fully operational Arcadis Ost 1 will create enough green energy to power approximately 290,000 households in the region.

Under the supply contract, Tekmar will design, manufacture, and supply its latest generation of TekTube CPS to protect the wind farm array cables as they transition from the seabed into the wind turbine foundation at 27 separate locations. The CPS will be manufactured at Tekmar's state-of-the-art facility in the northeast of England and delivered to Global Offshore in 2022.

Tekmar Group's comprehensive engineering capability and unrivalled industry experience make it uniquely positioned to deliver the optimum cable protection solution. This is demonstrated by Tekmar Energy working alongside fellow Group companies Ryder Geotechnical, Subsea Innovation and AgileTek Engineering to engineer and optimise CPS for Arcadis Ost 1. 

Marc Bell, Managing Director at Tekmar Energy, said: "We are delighted that Global Offshore has selected Tekmar Energy's Generation 10 CPS technology to protect Arcadis Ost 1. This project award demonstrates the industry's continued confidence in our subsea protection solutions. We look forward to working with Global Offshore to ensure cost-effective and timely project delivery".
