We use our own self-elevating jack-up platform with an integrated heavy-duty crane in the construction of our offshore wind park „BARD Offshore 1“ and also for subsequent maintenance work and possible repairs.

The „Wind Lift I“ gives us the essential equipment necessary for installing a wind farm on the high seas. Access to our own jack-up platform frees us from time restraints and gives us the flexibility to adapt necessary operative steps to the current conditions. This applies both to the construction and the subsequent operation of the offshore wind farm. The “Wind Lift I” provides a secure and stable working platform on the high seas, even with a swell of nearly five metres and up to force 7 winds. The platform features a helicopter landing deck and accommodation for up to 50 people.
