The nationwide supplier network with main project focus on Sør Nordsjø II
Sør Nordsjø II (SN2) together with Utsira Nord will be Norway’s first commercial offshore wind farm. SN2 is located approx. 140 kilometres from the coast and is suitable for fixed turbines, with a water depth between 53-70 metres. The auction of 1.5GW capacity is scheduled to be awarded during 2023. Development costs for the project are in the range of NOK 35 billion and annual operating costs in the range of NOK 600-800 million. The authorities have opened the pre-qualification process and we expect the auction to open this autumn with the allocation of the first areas before end of 2023.
Norseman Wind Role
Norseman Wind aims to award at least 50% of the project to Norwegian suppliers. As part of this goal, Norseman Wind, in collaboration with GCE Node and its partners, has started work on establishing a supplier network based on experience from the Oil & Gas industry. To ensure early and effective supplier engagement, we want to gather all expertise and experience early on, so that we can facilitate Norwegian suppliers as efficient as possible.
Leveraging our vast expertise and experience in the shipping and oil and gas industries, as well as our proven track record in offshore wind farm development, we are fully committed to delivering a successful project. Our approach incorporates critical insights to ensure efficient supplier engagement.
