UK-based marine contractor Acteon has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Taisei Corporation for cooperation on floating wind project development in Japan. For Taisei’s floating offshore wind projects in Japan, Acteon will provide services throughout the lifecycle of the project, from seabed characterisation, detailed engineering, foundation and mooring solutions to offshore installation and operation and maintenance. Acteon provides mooring solutions for all types of floating assets, from design and engineering to decommissioning. These include anchor and mooring system construction, floating infrastructure positioning and hooking up, mooring installation and inspection, maintenance, repair and replacement services, and late-life disposal services. Taisei aims to mass-produce concrete semi-submersible wind turbine foundations to help Japan meet its renewable energy targets. “We are excited to be working with Taisei to help accelerate Japanese floating wind deployment. Together, we have the extensive local knowledge and international expertise and resources to move quickly from desktop studies to power supply,” said Barry Parsons, CCO of Acteon. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsJapan Offshore Wind United Kingdom
