The N05-A platform is the first offshore gas platform in the Dutch North Sea to be powered entirely by wind power – harnessing electricity via cable from the nearby 113.4 MW Riffgat offshore wind farm.
The platform is part of the GEMS (‘Gateway to the Ems’) project, which focuses on developing field N05-A and other fields in the area, situated in the waters on the border of the Netherlands and Germany. The electrification of the N05-A platform is expected to reduce carbon emissions by over 85% throughout the project's duration.
HSM Offshore approached Mammoet to support the load-out of the 3,050t N05-A topside and 3,150t jacket at HSM’s quayside fabrication facility in Schiedam, Rotterdam. Mammoet’s scope for the project was to successfully load out both components onto a barge for shipping to sea. ONE-Dyas, the platform’s owner, managed offshore sailing and installation.
The assembly and weighing of the jacket and topside were done using mobile cranes, conventional trailers, and SPMTs. The first operational phase of the project was to support the movement and assembly of the jacket, which was fabricated and assembled in two parts. Mammoet supported the heavy transport and upending of the jacket’s rows with four
