摘要

The German Multibrid Entwicklungsgesellschaft has awarded Aker Kvaerner a contract for the procurement and construction of 13 steel-tripod substructures and piles for Multibrids M5000 offshore windmills. The M5000 is a wind turbine designed designated for the harsh offshore environment including a sophisticated air treatments system and incorporating nearly all support systems redundantly. Six of these shall be installed 45km off the coast of Germany, at the German offshore testfield Alpha Ventus, while the other seven shall be installed 6km off the Normandy coast of France, at a project called Cote d'Albatre.
