SHARJAH, UAE – Lamprell has entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NOV to support its delivery of three 1-GW offshore floating wind farms for Cerulean Winds in UK waters.

Cerulean is a UK-based floating offshore wind farm and green hydrogen infrastructure developer.

NOV has stated its intent to use Lamprell for the fabrication, assembly and outfitting in relation to the construction of NOV-designed tri-floaters which will serve as floating foundations for the three wind farms.

The two companies plan to collaborate to support and develop UK local content and will engage with the supply chain and yards in Britain interested in participating in the projects.

Last June, Cerulean applied to develop a 3GW+ floating wind turbine project at locations west of Shetland and in the UK central North Sea.

It named NOV as the first of its major delivery partners for fabrication of the proposed 200+ turbine development, also acting as the exclusive provider of floating and mooring systems.

If the project is approved, it should be commissioned in 2026.
