Projects

Our specialist teams have worked on the world’s largest offshore projects and have a combined 1,000 years of offshore engineering experience.

Dogger Bank A,B&C

Project Overview

Wood Thilsted has been appointed to carry out the detailed design for WTG foundations for the A, B & C phases of the Dogger Bank project – collectively the world’s largest offshore wind farm. In a geotechnically complex area, WT designers pushed boundaries to deliver holistically optimised foundations for this project, supporting the first in a new generation of offshore turbines. Working closely with our client, an innovative secondary steel solution was pioneered to reduce operational and installation safety risks.

East Anglia Hub

Project Overview

Originally involved at FEED stage demonstrating the feasibility of monopiles at the East Anglia 3 site with large turbines and deep water, Wood Thilsted’s involvement grew to the full detailed design scope for the combined development of the East Anglia 3, East Anglia 2 and East Anglia 1 North sites. Currently undergoing the final phases of design, WT’s sophisticated analysis and design refinement continues to deliver major CAPEX savings and risk reductions to our client, Iberdrola.

Vineyard Wind 1

Project Overview

Following a successful concept and FEED stage, Wood Thilsted, along with local partner WSP, designed foundations for the Vineyard Wind 1 Offshore Wind Farm. This pioneering project is the first commercial scale offshore wind farm in the USA and we were proud to provide expert support to navigate the rigorous federal government approvals process.

Kriegers Flak

Project Overview

Wood Thilsted provided expert geotechnical-focussed support to this 605MW offshore wind farm in the Danish Baltic Sea. Through our sophisticated geotechnical FE modelling capabilities, we provided interpretation, critical input and support to the foundation design as well as detailed predictions for pile driving analysis.

Thor

Project Overview

Wood Thilsted is delighted to have been appointed by RWE to carry out the detailed design for WTG foundations for the Thor offshore windfarm. Once commissioned in 2027, Thor will be the largest offshore windfarm in Denmark and will supply electricity for around 1 million homes. The WT design scope has been ongoing since May 2022 with the detailed design expected to be finished by the end of 2023. The foundation type selected is for XXL TP-less monopiles with a maximum diameter of 8.6m and lengths of up to 90m. The design work is being delivered by our multi-disciplinary team with the majority of the engineers based in our UK and Denmark offices.

Akita Port

Project Overview

Wood Thilsted was appointed by EPCI contractor Kajima to ensure reliable and timely delivery of the secondary steel package for one of the first offshore wind farms in Japan. WT’s skilled engineering team led the rapid turnaround of the secondary steel elements and prioritised key deliverables, as well as comprehensive support to the installation contractor. By combining practical understanding and rigorous engineering refinement, WT’s in-depth experience achieved success for our client and the project.
