Norway’s Aker Solutions has secured more work from Dragados Offshore, picking up a contract to build steel substructure for the BalWin2 high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter station, part of the 2 GW offshore wind grid connection system in Germany. The BalWin2 project is being developed by Amprion Offshore.
The contract, valued between NOK1.5bn ($147m) and NOK 2.5bn ($245m), builds on a previous agreement announced in February and involves the execution of an option for a second converter station within the broader BalWin project.
Work on the substructure will take place at Aker Solutions’ fabrication yard in Verdal, Norway. The company expects the project to support more than 450 jobs at peak activity. Aker Solutions’ scope of work includes procurement, fabrication engineering, and construction.
Preparatory work is set to begin in the first quarter of 2026, with construction starting in early 2027. Final delivery is scheduled for 2029.
