3 Years at Teesside Offshore Windfarm
GREAT ACHIEVEMENT Nick Murphy, Head of Operations at SeaRoc Group commented: “Our work on Teesside offshore windfarm has been a great achievement for SeaRoc. We are not aware of any other company our size which has successfully delivered the Principal Contractor role for an offshore windfarm and we are delighted to be taking our work on the project into its fourth continuous year.
From signing the initial contract back on Christmas Eve 2012 and taking over control at midnight on the 31st, we were able to set up a functioning marine coordination system overnight using SeaPlanner. We are proud to have been operating that system continuously now for over 3 years.”
