Keppel Offshore & Marine, through its wholly owned subsidiary Keppel FELS, has secured a contract from an international renewable energy company for the construction of an offshore substation (OSS) worth around S$130 million ($97 million).
Keppel O&M’s work scope comprises the engineering, procurement, construction, testing and commissioning for the complete substation. The OSS will have a capacity of 600 megawatts and is scheduled to be completed in 2025. When completed, the OSS will be deployed in an offshore wind site in the Asia Pacific region.
“As we extend our footprint and deepen our expertise in the offshore renewables industry, Keppel O&M is well-placed to support the growing demand for offshore wind solutions and contribute towards the global energy transition,” said Tan Leong Peng, managing director, new energy/business, at Keppel O&M.
Keppel O&M is strengthening its foothold across the value chain of offshore renewables. It
