Jack-Up Barge Grounds Off Denmark
A offshore wind farm jack-up barge has grounded within the North Sea off Denmark after its tow line parted in heavy climate.
Offshore wind market service supplier A2SEA has confirmed that its jack-up barge Sea Worker ran aground early Wednesday morning off the coast of Nymindegab, south of Hvide Sande in Denmark.
The jack-up broke free from its tug in heavy climate throughout a transit to Esbjerg and started drifting in direction of shore.
All crew members onboard have been evacuated by a lifeboat from Hvide Sande previous to grounding. No accidents have been reported.
Sea Worker is a contemporary jack-up barge specifically geared up to function within the offshore wind sector, in response to A2SEA’s web site.
