CRP Subsea won contract for 960 MW offshore wind farm in the UK

CRP Subsea, an AIS company, has secured a substantial contract from Seaway7 for a 960 MW offshore wind farm located in the North Sea. The contract involves supplying cable protection systems for ScottishPower Renewables' East Anglia TWO wind project.

Under this agreement, CRP Subsea will deliver 142 NjordGuard cable protection systems (CPS) to protect each end of the inter array cables on the project’s wind turbines. These systems will protect the cables from over-bending, abrasion and fatigue during installation and throughout their operational life. Three NjordGuard CPS designs will be engineered to meet the specific installation requirements for both monopile and J-tube interface types.

The NjordGuard systems will be manufactured at CRP Subsea’s purpose-built manufacturing facility in the North West of England. This industry-leading facility includes a state-of-the-art semi-automated production line that significantly increases production capacity. 

East Anglia TWO is part of the wider East Anglia Hub, which includes East Anglia ONE North, East Anglia TWO, and East Anglia THREE. The offshore wind farm lies 46 km off the coast of Lowestoft and 113 km from the Netherlands. It will feature up to 64 wind turbine generators (WTGs) across a 218 km² area. Project engineering works will commence immediately, with final delivery expected in February 2027.
