Transportas has played a key part in StatOil Hydro’s environmentally pioneering Hywind project. Hywind is the world’s first full-scale floating wind turbine, which will float on seas of depths between  be

placed at ocean depths of between 120 and 700 meters. The floating structure consists of a steel jacket filled with ballast.

This floating element will extend 100 meters beneath the surface and will be fastened to the seabed by three anchor piles. The mooring equipment, crucial to the safe continued operation of the project, is

extremely heavy, and Transportas was involved in shipping bundles of chains from China to Norway, anchors from the Nertherlands, and reels from Italy.
