CONTRACT SIGNED FOR MORAY WEST OFFSHORE WIND FARM

Further to the announcement for the reservation agreement issued on 22 March 2022, Lamprell is pleased to confirm that it has signed the very large contract* and received a full notice to proceed from Moray Offshore Windfarm (West) Limited. The base scope of work includes the construction of 60 wind turbine generator transition pieces and two transition pieces for Moray West's two offshore substations, as well as for the shipping of the transition pieces to a marshalling harbour in the UK. To complete these works, the Group will make use of a state-of-the-art renewables production line, which is currently under construction and through which we will be able to construct jacket components, transition pieces and monopiles** for this and future renewables projects.

*Lamprell has reviewed its definition of contract values as a result of recent changes in its bid pipeline. The new ranges are listed below:

Small contract: value below USD 50 million

Medium-sized contract: between USD 50 million and up to USD 100 million

Large contract: over USD 100 million and up to USD 200 million

Very large contract: over USD 200 million

** Transition pieces

The transition piece of a fixed offshore wind turbine is a reinforced part of the support structure that is connected to the wind turbine tower. These structural elements present unique features and are critical components of offshore wind turbines, contributing to the structural soundness and reliability of offshore wind turbines.

Monopile/transition pieces

Monopiles are a simple steel pile made by steel tubes and cones which sit beneath the turbine tower, typically through a transition piece. The monopile is inserted between 10 and 20 metres into the seabed depending on the stability of the seabed, extending the turbine tower under water and into the seabed.

Transition pieces form, together with the monopiles, the foundation of the turbines. The transition piece includes various functionalities such as access for maintenance, cable connections for the energy produced by the turbine and the corrosion protection for the foundation. The transition piece is fixed on the foundation structure, whether monopile or jacket, and consists of thick walled tubes constructed from rolled plates of an offshore steel quality.
