Cooperating with HB Tunnelling<\/a>, J Murphy and Sons\u2019<\/a> energy business unit has started process on the tunnels that are going to house onshore cabling for the Sofia and Dogger Bank C offshore wind projects.<\/p>\n

Also installation of a 7km high-voltage direct current (HVDC) onshore cable route in Teesside, is a part of this tunneling works.<\/p>\n

While the location of Sofia and Dogger Bank C projects are both on Dogger Bank, more than 195km from the north east coast of England, the third phase of the Dogger Bank wind farm belongs to Dogger Bank C.<\/p>\n

The determined place for arrival of the export cables for the two wind projects is due to be the shore in Teesside, between Redcar and Marske-by-the-Sea, whereas they will share their onshore cable corridors, and their cable ducts are being installed at the same time.<\/p>\n

In February 2022, the design and delivery contract for the onshore cabling was awarded to Engineering and construction firm J Murphy and Sons and it has commenced work on the four 12m to 17m deep tunnels that pass beneath a railway bridge, as well as eight shafts.<\/p>\n

In order to installing the 1,200mm pipe-jacked micro tunnels, with drive lengths between 107m and 150m, the help of Murphy\u2019s specialist supply chain partner HB Tunnelling is being using.<\/p>\n

Although the scheduled date for completion of the tunneling works is June 2023, the full civil works is slated to be run through until the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

Following its completion, the cable routes will link the two offshore wind projects to their new onshore converter stations situated within Wilton International.<\/p>\n

While the whole owner of Sofia is RWE, Dogger Bank wind farm is a joint venture between SSE Renewables, Equinor and V\u00e5rgr\u00f8nn.<\/p>\n

Despite that they are owned by different companies, the developers are working jointly at the site of their adjacent converter stations and along the shared onshore cable route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
