DEME Secures Major Contract for 800 MW OranjeWind Offshore Wind Farm Cable Installation in the Netherlands

DEME Secures Major Contract for 800 MW OranjeWind Offshore Wind Farm Cable Installation in the Netherlands

DEME has been awarded a substantial contract, valued between €150 million and €300 million, to manage the transport and installation of inter-array cables and secondary steel structures for the 800 MW OranjeWind offshore wind farm in the Netherlands. The company will handle a total of 114 kilometers of inter-array cables, connecting 53 foundations to the offshore substation in the Dutch North Sea, with cables supplied by TKF.

Scheduled to commence in the second half of 2026, DEME plans to utilize offshore and cable installation vessels, a hopper dredger, a fallpipe vessel, and supporting equipment. This scope includes complete engineering, preparation, and auxiliary activities, providing a full-service solution to project developers RWE and TotalEnergies.

The project site, situated 53 kilometers from the Dutch coast near IJmuiden, requires pre-sweeping for areas with significant sand waves to ensure cable burial at the target depth. Stabilization with rock will be applied at the offshore substation and at existing asset crossings. Additionally, the secondary steel scope covers transport and installation of boat landings, access platforms, and internal platforms on the monopile foundations.

With our diverse offshore fleet and specialized equipment, we are well-positioned to deliver this project successfully, while collaborating closely with the RWE and TotalEnergies joint venture. Our experience in cable installation will be crucial, especially considering the dynamic seabed at the wind farm location, said Philip Scheers, General Manager Subsea Power Cables at DEME.

This is DEME's fourth recent contract for offshore cable installation, reinforcing its expertise in this specialized field. Offshore construction at the OranjeWind site will begin in 2026, with full commissioning targeted for early 2028.
