RWE
says
the
work,
which
started
in
June,
finished
on
schedule.
The
50-metre-high,
550
tonne
jacket
foundations
have
been
installed
30km
from
the
port
of
Ostende
in
water
depths
of
between
12
and
25
metres.
The
foundations
were
manufactured
in
Hoboken
near
Antwerp
and
transported
on
pontoons
through
the
Scheldt
estuary,
where
they
were
installed
on
top
of
pre-installed
piles.
RWE
and
its
partners
plan
to
complete
the
inter-array
cabling
for
the
wind
farm
by
the
end
of
the
year,
with
turbine
installation
due
to
commence
at
the
beginning
of
2012.
