OFFSHORE WIND TURBINES
Installation methods vary depending on the turbine supplier and the relative size of turbine and vessel. Typically, the turbine tower is pre-assembled onshore and transported with the nacelle and blades for final assembly offshore. Heavy lift vessels designed for transporting and lifting heavy loads are needed for assembly. Cranes vessels are used to lift the parts into place.Â

Recent turbine installation on commercial-scale projects to date has normally been undertaken with a self-propelled jack-up vessel designed primarily for the purpose, though in some cases, jack-up barges have been towed with tugs.
