Off- / Nearshore
The local proximity and emotional connection to the water has already attracted us to the coastal area and the sea in the past. Starting with the installation of the offshore measuring station FINO 1, a separate department developed over the years from our ranks, which dealt with the installation of foundation structures for offshore wind farms and installed well over 650 foundations in Germany, Denmark and Great Britain and was sold by Bilfinger SE as a separate division in 2016.
Our experience in the design and manufacture of concrete working platforms for offshore wind power foundations (TPs) dates back to this period and we continue to hold patents for these platforms, which we supply for projects in the UK, Germany and Denmark.
