Ecosse Subsea Systems (ESS) has successfully designed, built and delivered a 700Te carousel to a major international infrastructure group.
The 700Te carousel designed with the capacity to be upgraded to 1700Te will be used for the storage of cables required for UK offshore wind farm projects.
The design and project management phases were conducted at ESS headquarters in Banchory near Aberdeen, with partial manufacture undertaken at ESS subsidiary firm MASfab in County Durham.
Now ESS, a specialist subsea and energy sector engineering company will look to win similar orders for the design and construction of carousels for onshore and offshore use.
This is the second onshore storage carousel ESS have delivered, having previously successfully completed a 800Te offshore rated unit on behalf of a major renewables client.
