Hasn't been much sign of activity so far but the big crane is active again, the scaffolding has gone and FAST SUS has arrived with what looks like a cargo of tubes. Photo taken 20/06/2019.
Smulders yard today (13/12/2019) with plenty of legs on show but a distinct lack of tops to go on them. Perhaps they are waiting for better weather windows in the NY.
The first delivery of tops for Smulders new contract. They were brought in on the barge SM253 towed by MULTRATUG 17. Local tugs SVITZER SUN & TYNE assisting to the berth. These seem larger and heavier than previous tops.
Spotted from the A189 Spine Road on the way to work on 17th July That's at 6.30am and I know 'work' is a four letter word and distant memory to some members of this forum Regards Graham
Towed jackets were intended for Nigg Energy Scotland yard and ultimately the Moray East OWF In all 103 jackets to be positioned, the majority being constructed in the UAE and shipped by OHT's HAWK, OSPREY and ALBATROSS. Regards Graham
Smulders are currently building substations for the Moray West and Inch Cape windfarms. This is the first time substations have been built here. I guess these are them at the east end of the yard.
