Mammoet lands SeAH Wind offshore project in UK

Trade Arabia06-03-2025
Mammoet, a global leader in engineered heavy lifting and transport sectors, said it has along with Glacier Energy, and Hutchinson Engineering, been signed up as key subcontractors by SeAH Wind for its Hornsea 3 Offshore Wind Project in UK.
With commercial production set to commence in the coming months, these subcontractors have been selected to support with the operational and logistical services within the 120-acre site located on the South Bank of Teesworks, UK.
SeAH Wind will be supplying the monopile foundations for the Hornsea 3 Offshore Wind Project, off the Norfolk Coast in the North Sea. Upon completion, it will become the world's largest offshore wind farm.
On the contract award, CEO Chris Sohn said: "At SeAH Wind, we are excited to partner with Mammoet, Glacier Energy, and Hutchinson Engineering for the Hornsea 3 project. These strategic appointments reflect our commitment to delivering market leading XXXL Monopiles."
"With these trusted partners, we are confident that we will meet our project goals while upholding the highest standards of quality, safety, and efficiency," he stated.
Mammoet has been appointed to provide self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs) within the SeAH Wind facility. Its scope includes the transportation of can/cone structures and completed monopiles.
By leveraging Mammoet's expertise in heavy transport solutions in offshore wind site logistics, SeAH Wind ensures a seamless and efficient movement of monopiles, minimizing downtime and improving overall production efficiency.
Darren Watson, the sales manager from Mammoet, said: "We are delighted to be helping SeAH Wind to deliver the future of offshore wind foundations by providing marshalling capabilities that are constantly at the cutting edge of what can be lifted and transported."
Glacier Energy will conduct non-destructive testing (NDT) of welds throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring the highest quality standards.
Its rigorous NDT inspections will enhance the reliability and durability of the monopiles, ensuring they meet both Ørsted's stringent standards and international offshore wind regulations.
Scott Martin, Group CEO at Glacier Energy, said: "We are proud to be supporting SeAH Wind with NDT services for the Hornsea 3 project, marking a significant milestone for Glacier Energy."
"This collaboration builds on our strong heritage of supporting wind foundation manufacturers and reinforces our commitment to the northeast of England's growth. We look forward to working with SeAH Wind and playing a pivotal role in the success of the project," he added.
Hutchinson Engineering has been tasked with supplying secondary steel components for the Hornsea 3 project.
SeAH Wind sought a UK-based company capable of delivering these complex parts in compliance with stringent Ørsted drawings and specifications. Hutchinson Engineering's previous experience on Ørsted projects, combined with its expertise, makes them an ideal partner for this phase of the project.
Steve Adams, Managing Director at Hutchinsons Engineering, said: "Hutchinson is delighted to have been awarded the Secondary Steel contract by SeAH Wind."

Appeals Court Allows BD20,000 Gulf Verdict To Take Effect

The Supreme Civil Appeals Court has ruled that a BD20,000 judgment issued by a court in a Gulf country in a commercial dispute is enforceable in Bahrain. The decision came in response to a case filed by a Gulf-based businessman against a local contracting company over unpaid commercial transactions. The court overturned an earlier lower court ruling that had rejected the enforcement request on the grounds that the foreign judgment was not final. However, appeals judges found the ruling to be conclusive and binding, as the appeal window had passed. Lawyer Abrar Bukheet, representing the claimant, said her client had initially filed the case in his home country after a business dispute with the Bahraini company's owner. The foreign court ordered the defendant to pay nearly BD20,000 in penalties and outstanding dues. A retrial request was denied, prompting the claimant to seek enforcement through Bahrain's courts. The appeals court cited Bahrain's Civil and Commercial Execution Law, which allows enforcement of foreign judgments under reciprocal terms— provided certain conditions are met. These include confirming that Bahraini courts had no jurisdiction over the case, that due process was followed, the ruling was final, and it did not conflict with any previous Bahraini judgment. The court confirmed that the Gulf ruling met all requirements, including carrying the executory formula and the authority of res judicata. It accepted the appeal, overturned the lower court's decision, and approved enforcement of the foreign judgment within the Kingdom.
