A jacket via Cherbourg


The jacket construction that is to support the electrical substation of the Fécamp offshore wind farm has just entered the port of Cherbourg. This jacket is 60 m high and weighs 1,200 t. It was towed on the Stralsund barge, which itself is 90 m long and 32 m wide.

 

Installed at the Quai des Mielles for about one month, it will be subject to various inspections and checks, before being transferred and placed at sea off Fécamp. The port of Cherbourg was chosen for this operation because of its EMR positioning, its proximity to Decamp and its ease of nautical access that enables the port to receive and handle barges of this size.
