近日，能源服务公司Kent已获得英国Morven海上风电项目的前端工程设计(pre-FEED)研究合同。该项目由BP和EnBW拥有。
作为ScotWind租赁轮次的一部分，该项目的2.9吉瓦(GW)项目将在65-75米的水中使用固定底部涡轮机。约860平方公里的租约位于阿伯丁海岸约2公里处
BP和EnBW对该项目的投资还将包括支持利斯港的重建，并在阿伯丁建立一个运营和维护基地。
预计为期六个月的预FEED研究将涉及工程设计工作，以支持关键决策，基础类型，腐蚀防护概念以及运输和安装可行性。
为了交付这一范围，Kent将与Ternan Energy合作，提供专业的岩土工程服务，补充其内部岩土工程能力。
Morven海上风电项目将在帮助实现苏格兰11GW的海上风电发电目标和英国到50年实现2030GW的目标方面发挥作用。肯特说，预计在项目的整个生命周期内，它还将在建筑和运营方面创造数千个就业机会。
Energy services firm Kent has secured a pre–Front End Engineering Design (pre-FEED) study contract for the Morven offshore wind project in the UK. The project is owned by BP and EnBW.
The 2.9 gigawatt (GW) project, awarded as part of the ScotWind leasing round, will use fixed-bottom turbines in 65-75 meters of water. The approximately 860km2 lease is located around 60km off the coast of Aberdeen
Investment into the project by BP and EnBW will also include supporting the regeneration of the Port of Leith and create an operations and maintenance base in Aberdeen.
The pre-FEED studies which are expected to last six months, will involve engineering design work that supports key decisions, foundation type, corrosion protection concepts as well as transportation and installation feasibility.
For delivery of this scope, Kent will work with Ternan Energy, to provide specialist Geotechnical services supplementing their in-house geotechnical capabilities.
The Morven offshore wind project will play a role in helping to achieve Scotland’s offshore wind generation target of 11GW and the UK’s 50GW target by 2030. It is also expected to create thousands of jobs in both construction and operations over the lifetime of the project, Kent said.
