Hornsesa 3 – Foundations Installation

Project Overview

Hornsea 3, developed by Ørsted, is one of the world’s largest offshore wind farms. For the first time, Cadeler takes responsibility for the full transport and installation of all foundations, requiring the design, procurement, and fabrication of complex mission equipment (ME). These bespoke lifting, transport, and storage tools are large-scale, uniquely engineered, and remotely operated — their quality and performance are central to safe and efficient offshore installation.

Our Roles

  • Ensure strict compliance of fabrication with technical specifications, safety standards, and performance requirements.
  • Manage supplier NCRs and embed the use of eviFile for issue tracking and resolution.
  • Supervise and co-ordinate QC inspectors across multiple global suppliers.
  • Review and approve supplier quality documentation (ITPs, FMEAs, procedures, as-builts).
  • Chair regular Quality Activity Plan (QAP) meetings to align expectations across packages.
  • Witness inspection and test plan (ITP) points to verify critical quality gates.
  • Step in personally to perform inspections where required to maintain timelines and standards.

  • Establishing baseline quality and HSE expectations.
  • Engaging globally with the fabrication supply chain to assess capabilities and readiness.

Outcome

  • Initiated global supply chain engagement to identify suitable fabrication contractors.
  • Provided input into FEED design development and master program planning.
  • Supported Ignitis Renewables in shaping OSS package strategy and preparing for contractor onboarding.
  • Positioned the project for transition from early feasibility into execution readiness.

Moray West – Offshore Wind Farm

Project Overview

Moray West is an 882 MW offshore wind farm in the Outer Moray Firth, Scotland, and the sister project to Moray East. The development features 60 Siemens Gamesa 14.7 MW turbines, supported by monopile and transition piece foundations fabricated across multiple international yards. Once operational, the project will supply renewable power to more than 1.3 million UK homes.

Site Manager – Transition Pieces, UAE 

  • Relocated to Lamprell’s yard in Sharjah to directly manage the fabrication of 60 transition pieces.
  • Oversaw all aspects of site fabrication, inspections, audits, and schedule control.
  • Led a team of 22 expats and local staff, ensuring quality, safety, and productivity.
  • Acted as liaison between the UK project team, contractors, and sub-suppliers to resolve technical and delivery issues.
  • Managed fabrication documentation (ITPs, RAMS, procedures, drawings), FAT records, and as-built dossiers.
  • Oversaw snagging management through Snag Master, driving completion and handover.
  • Embedded a strong safety culture and ensured compliance with contractor and HSE requirements.

Outcome

  • Delivered monopile and transition piece fabrication successfully across three international yards (Spain, China, UAE).
  • Achieved on-time delivery of transition pieces in the UAE under direct site management.
  • Strengthened client oversight and continuity from project set-up through to final site execution.
  • Supported the project’s progress towards generating renewable electricity for over 1.3 million UK homes.
