Subsea Applications

Subsea wind turbine foundations need to withstand the dynamic forces exerted by waves, currents, and tidal fluctuations. Engineers must design robust foundations capable of withstanding these forces while considering factors such as material durability, load distribution, and geotechnical stability. Regular inspections and monitoring are crucial to ensure the ongoing integrity of the subsea foundations.​

Nord-Lock Group solutions can address the needs of offshore wind turbine foundations, including crowded connections and floating connections.​

​

Common issues:

Foundation size​

Foundations of wind turbine bases are large and heavy, requiring large diameter bolting to ensure stability. Offshore wind turbine foundations require robust connections to anchor the turbine to the seabed.​

Boltight® subsea tensioners are specifically designed to meet the needs of the offshore wind industry market and can be specified to any turbine type: monopile, jacket/tripod, semi-submersible, or floating spar.​

Environmental forces​

Subsea wind turbine foundations need to withstand the dynamic forces exerted by waves, currents, and tidal fluctuations.​

Nord-Lock® washers are used in securing cable connections in offshore wind farms, preventing loosening caused by environmental factors and maintaining reliable connections.​
