The transition pieces, which will be installed atop the monopiles, are up to 30 meters long and up to 7 feet in diameter, and weigh up to 579 tons.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Walney offshore wind farm is being developed about 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) off Cumbria, United Kingdom, in an area with tidal fluctuations of up to eight meters. The project is being built in two parts and will have a total of 102 Siemens-built turbines with total generating capacity of 367 megawatts.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This is the second large contract that Hamburg-based SAL has signed for offshore support this year. SAL\u2019s Trina recently completed delivery of components for the Veja Mate project off Germany\u2019s North Sea coast.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For that project, SAL carried 67 transition pieces weighing 365 tons each and measuring 22 by six meters, along with airtight platforms and anode cages.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">SAL, based in Hamburg, is part of the \u201cK\u201d Line Group. The carrier has 13 heavy-lift ships with speeds as fast as 20 knots, unobstructed deck space of up to 3,500 square meters, and combined crane capacities of 550 to 2,200 tons per ship.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7836 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cranemarket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Van-Oord-Marine-Construction.machine.market.jpg\" alt=\"Van-Oord-Marine-Construction.machine.market\" width=\"401\" height=\"126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Van-Oord-Marine-Construction.machine.market.jpg 401w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Van-Oord-Marine-Construction.machine.market-300x94.jpg 300w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Van-Oord-Marine-Construction.machine.market-400x126.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7831 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cranemarket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/SAL-Heavy_lift.jpg\" alt=\"SAL-Heavy_lift\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/SAL-Heavy_lift.jpg 400w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/SAL-Heavy_lift-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/SAL-Heavy_lift-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SAL Heavy Lift has won a contract from the Dutch offshore construction company Van Oord to deliver cargo for the foundation and supports of the Walney offshore wind project being developed in the Irish Sea.
