b.offshore GmbH is once again supporting a good cause this year by contributing a donation of 500 euros to the 7th Geestland Easter Egg Tombola organised by the Lions Club Langen-Pipinsburg.

b.offshore GmbH was able to contribute its expertise during the installation phase of an offshore wind farm currently under construction. Three self-sufficient 10-foot energy containers were developed, built, and commissioned in the North Sea for the operator to ensure the power supply for the radio network operation for the installation personnel. The entire project cycle was covered, from the initial design to final commissioning in the offshore wind farm.

b.offshore GmbH has installed a platform with an integrated overhead crane for a converter station in the North Sea. This solution enables easy and safe access to the pumps and their replacement without exposing service personnel to danger. The project phases included development and design of the system, production monitoring at the steel manufacturer, the purchase of attachments including the crane, and offshore installation. Shortly after installation, the system was successfully put into operation.

In November, the industrial surveying experts at b.offshore GmbH successfully completed the survey of the helicopter landing deck for a new converter station in the North Sea. The aim was to precisely determine the geographical location and elevation of the landing site in accordance with the AVV-HFP (General Administrative Regulation for the Approval of the Construction and Operation of Helicopter Landing Sites).

As part of the initial commissioning of a drinking water installation for an offshore converter station, the b.offshore GmbH team successfully carried out all measures in accordance with the requirements of VDI 6023. This achieved the main objective of the inspection, which was to ensure hygienically safe drinking water quality and protect human health.

As part of a new job at a converter station in the Baltic Sea, the b.offshore GmbH team carried out a hygienic inspection and cleaning of the ventilation and air conditioning systems in line with VDI 6022. The goal was to make sure the ventilation systems were hygienically safe and working properly to protect people's health.

In September 2025, a three-person team from b.offshore GmbH installed several CCTV video surveillance cameras in the outdoor area of an offshore converter platform. First, cables were routed from the interior of the platform to the exterior and the cameras were connected to the cables via distribution boxes.

In February 2025, b.offshore GmbH installed the lightning protection and grounding system for the MLQ accommodation containers on an offshore platform under construction at a shipyard in Spain. During the commissioning phase in the North Sea, a comprehensive visual and metrological inspection of the external and internal lightning protection systems was carried out. The focus was on the metrological inspection of the earthing connections below the accommodation containers and the connection to the structural foundation.

In the first eight months of 2025, our company b.offshore GmbH finished 50 offshore jobs – a record in the company's history. Capacity utilisation is way higher than in recent years, which shows how well we're doing.

b.offshore GmbH has been carrying out the annual inspection of lightning protection systems in accordance with DIN EN 62305-3 for the transmission system operator TenneT since 2024. All converter stations onshore and offshore in the North Sea are subject to a periodic inspection.
