Olympic Taurus Collects Last Cable Reels for Northwind OWF

First ship to call at BOW Terminal in 2014 was Olympic Taurus of Tideway. 

The vessel called at BOW Terminal on January 2, to collect the last cable reels for installation on the Northwind offshore wind farm. The operation went safe and smooth despite the windy circumstances.

The Northwind wind farm, situated off Zeebrugge in Belgium, will consist of more than 70 offshore wind turbines, providing 216 MW of electricity, which is enough power for 120,000 households.
