中国石化新闻网讯 据海上工程师数字网2023年4月12日报道，意大利著名能源服务公司萨伊博姆（Saipem）在苏格兰最大的海上风电场Seagreen项目成功安装了被称为世界上最深的海上风力涡轮机地基。

4月7日，Seaway 7公司用一艘驳船将海上风力涡轮机地基运到海上现场，随后半潜式起重船“萨伊博姆7000”将2000吨涡轮机的地基全部吊装到位。

“海上风力涡轮机地基的成功安装意味着Segreen项目已经打破了自2022年10月以来的纪录，当时在57.4米(约188英尺)深处安装了一个地基。最深的地基已经安装在58.6米深的地方。”Seagreen项目的合作伙伴SSE可再生能源公司表示。

这一里程碑也标志着由114台风力涡轮机组成的风力发电场的第112个导管架的成功安装，该风力发电场是SSE可再生能源公司和法国道达尔能源公司投资30亿英镑组建的合资企业。最终的风力涡轮机地基预计将在本周晚些时候安装。

Segreen项目总监约翰·希尔表示：“每次地基安装都有超过50人参与，包括陆上团队、压舱工程师、拖船船长、船员、索具装配员、焊工、拖船师傅和领航员。”

希尔说：“在这样一个具有挑战性的地理区域，我们能够在这样的深度安装导管架，这提高了英国的能源安全，也意味着消费者可以从北海的强风中受益。”

每个地基将支持一台维斯塔斯V164-10兆瓦涡轮机。第一次发电在2022年8月实现，海上风电场预计将在今年晚些时候投入商业运营。”

建成后，这座1.1吉瓦的世界最深海上风电场每年将能够产生大约5000吉瓦时的电力，足以为160多万个英国家庭供电。

World"s Deepest Offshore Wind Foundation Installed in Scotland

Italian energy services firm Saipem has installed what has been described as the world’s deepest offshore wind turbine foundation at Scotland’s largest offshore wind farm – Seagreen.

Last Friday, Seaway 7 transported the jacket foundation on a barge to the offshore site it was met by the semisubmersible crane vessel Saipem 7000 which is used to lift each of the 2,000-tonne turbine foundations into place.

"The installation of the jacket means Seagreen has now topped its own record from October 2022, when a previous foundation was installed at a depth of 57.4 meters (approximately 188 feet). The deepest foundation has been installed at a depth of 58.6 meters," SSE Renewables, a partner in the Seagreen project, said.

The milestone also marked the installation of the 112th jacket at the 114-wind turbine wind farm which is a £3bn joint venture between SSE Renewables and TotalEnergies. The final wind turbine foundation is expected to be installed later this week.

John Hill, Seagreen"s Project Director said: "More than 50 people are involved each time a foundation installation takes place including the onshore team, ballast engineer, tug captain, crew, riggers, welders, tow master and pilot.

Our ability to install jackets at this depth, in what is a challenging geographical area, boosts the UK’s energy security and means that consumers can benefit from the strong winds available far out in the North Sea."

Each foundation will support a Vestas V164-10 MW turbine. First power was achieved in August 2022 with the offshore wind farm expected to enter commercial operation later this year."

When complete, the 1.1GW wind farm will be capable of generating around 5,000 GWh of electricity annually, which is enough to power more than 1.6 million UK homes.,
