Earlier this week, ALE Heavylift transported the first of five floating spar foundations, weighing 3,600 ton, by SPMT, self propelled modular transporter, within the Izar Navantia facilities in Ferrol, Spain.
ALE Heavylift will perform five on-site transportations, before loading-out each spar foundation onto a barge. The foundations will then sail to the wind energy farm in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. This is part of the Hywind Project, a new wind farm 25 km off the coast of Peterhead.
