OEG (Offshore Energy Group) subsidiary Bluestream has secured a contract from TenneT for the retrofit installation of a corrosion protection system at the SylWin alpha offshore converter station, part of the SylWin1 offshore grid connection in Germany, according to the company's release.
The contract involves the subsea installation of a new Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) system to replace the current faulty system.
This includes the removal of outdated cables and debris, a pre-survey using an ROV, and the installation of subsea cables, buoy-mounted ICCP anodes, and concrete mattresses for cable protection.

"We are extremely proud of TenneT’s continued trust in Bluestream’s capabilities and are honoured to be awarded the ICCP installation works at SylWin alpha," said Rutger Lieverse, Commercial Manager at Bluestream.
