Worldwide there is an increased demand of offshore renewable energy sources. One of the major sources for this moment is of course Wind Energy.
Throughout the past years GN has proven to be a dedicated and reliable partner supplying numerous high quality products for these projects. For installation and handling of fixed offshore windfarms (monopile foundations) we have designed special products. These are developed in such way that they can be used safely with synthetic slings and grommets.
Besides the standard (rigging) sockets we are also able to offer Forged Sockets (LTM / PMS). These sockets can be designed to project requirement. Forged sockets can be either Open as well as Closed sockets. Upon request we are able to supply them with bend stiffeners, zinc anodes etc. Depending on the specific project we can offer them with additional testing as proof load, break load, mechanical testing etc.
