VIDEO: IHC Hydrohammer® Installs Walney 2 Monopile Foundations

The foundations for the Walney phase 2 offshore wind turbines at sea are placed by Ballast Nedam Offshore B.V. from the Netherlands. The monopiles are transported floating towards Ballast Nedam’s heavy lift vessel Svanen, which subsequently upends and installs the monopiles with the use of an S-2000 Hydrohammer®.
