The corrosion protection on the roofs and the exhaust tract of the diesel generator containers at the DolWin beta offshore converter station operated by TenneT was reconditioned by b.offshore GmbH. Due to the extreme weather conditions on the high seas, maintenance and repair work on the corrosion protection must be carried out at regular intervals.

With its new business premises near the Bremerhaven-Geestemünde motorway junction, b.offshore GmbH is expanding its capacities in the areas of retrofit as well as service and maintenance. In addition to office space, the company now has workshop and storage areas that offer sufficient space to optimise preparations for offshore operations.

b.offshore GmbH can announce the successful installation of an additional protective conduit for new ICCP cables on the jacket of the Arkona-Becken Südost offshore substation in the Baltic Sea, which was completed for RWE Renewables GmbH.

b.offshore GmbH ensured a “good climate” at two offshore substations of RWE Renewables GmbH. In the Amrumbank West and Nordsee Ost wind farms, better accessibility for maintenance and cleaning work was created by retrofitting inspection covers in the ventilation duct network of the HVAC systems.

At the substation of RWE Renewables GmbH's Nordsee Ost offshore wind farm, the problem solvers from b.offshore GmbH were once again able to demonstrate their expertise and speed. They carried out the necessary replacement of a diesel engine turbocharger intercooler.

With a donation to the Tafel Bremerhaven, b.offshore GmbH has set an example against poverty and food waste. The three team members Jana Stegmann, Kristin Büter and Matthias Bullwinkel were delighted to hand over the donation cheque, expressing their heart for people in need on behalf of the company.

b.offshore GmbH carried out the replacement of a rescue davit crane at the BorWin gamma offshore converter station operated by transmission system operator TenneT. All the necessary work in the areas of electrical engineering, hydraulics and mechanics was carried out by b.offshore employees.

b.offshore GmbH has completed the refurbishment of the suction-side part of the seawater cooling system on the BorWin beta offshore converter platform on behalf of TenneT. The modernisation will ensure the removal of excess heat from the central water cooling system in future.

At the offshore converter station HelWin alpha, b.offshore GmbH has created a new access concept that enables work to be carried out below the platform. The platform operated by TenneT was put into operation in 2015. With their extensive practical experience, the b.offshore specialists have created a way to carry out work below the platform.

In 2021, b.offshore was tasked by civil engineering partner J.B.O. (www.j-b-o.de) to provide a design for the electrical outfit of the transition pieces for the #EnBW (www.enbw.com) OWF “He Dreiht”. This design was to include dedicated networking and PLC systems which should not only consider the functional requirements for the operations team at #EnBW, but also the cyber security requirements for critical infrastructure (BSI-KritisV, www.bsi.bund.de). We are happy to announce that in close coordination with #EnBW our design has been approved for implementation. Please contact us to discuss your OWF networking and cyber security requirements and how we can support you in achieving or maintaining your vital status as operator of critical infrastructure.
