The Amrumbank West offshore wind farm is located approximately 35 km northwest of Heligoland and about 37 km west of the North Frisian island of Amrum in the German North Sea. The wind farm comprises 80 Siemens SWT-3.6-120 wind turbines, each with a rated capacity of 3.6 MW, for a total output of 302 MW. A notable feature of the project was the installation of a meteorological mast in 2005, designed to collect data on wind conditions, weather, wave activity, and ocean currents. The mast, which extended 90 m above sea level, was dismantled in February 2016 after delivering over a decade of valuable meteorological data.
For Amrumbank West, JBO provided structural verification of the monopile structure in accordance with the design basis. The focus was on structural verification and load calculations to ensure compliance with applicable technical standards.
Support was provided across all design phases, including fabrication and construction supervision.
