SeaRenergy – Fichtner have been awarded with the revision and development of all risk assessments for TenneT´s offshore and onshore converter stations, the converter stations being essential elements of the North Sea grid connections.
The contract has been signed for a minimum of two years. The purpose is to identify potential hazards for people, installations or the environment and the prevention of damages. With the target of a consistent improvement in occupational safety and health, all work processes and equipment will be identified and evaluated in order to define measures and continuously check their effectiveness.
SeaRenergy has been working on the completion of Tennet´s grid connections for several years. Starting off with transport and installation of two offshore converter platforms for the general contractor, SeaRenergy has been providing operation support on these platforms since their commissioning in 2015.
Fichtner has been providing project management and engineering solutions for the entire grid connections since 2010 already. Apart from the offshore converter platforms, Fichtner is also well familiar with Tennet´s onshore installations.
„We are pleased that TenneT appreciates our work during the past 5 years. We are looking forward to continue our work and contribute to a safe and reliable operation of Tennet´s offshore grid connections” says Dr. Benjamin Vordemfelde, CEO SeaRenergy.
