Tekmar and DeepWater Buoyancy ink floating wind MoU

Tekmar Group and DeepWater Buoyancy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to work together in the floating offshore wind sector.

The partnership will offer a collective package of geotechnical assessment and engineering analysis, cable, and mooring system design, cable protection and stabilization solutions, cable buoyancy, and mooring line buoyancy.

Additionally, Tekmar and DeepWater said they will offer bespoke product solutions for the unique elements of floating offshore wind projects, such as cable disconnection systems.

The move comes as the companies plan to enhance the range of services and technologies they offer while helping integrate and optimize offshore project supply chains. 

“Aligning with DeepWater Buoyancy gives Tekmar Group access to over 40 years of innovation in subsea buoyancy products. This strengthens the unrivalled service and technology capability we already offer across a subsea project’s timeline,” said Gary Howland, Group sales director at Tekmar.

“The partnership supports Tekmar Group’s ambition for the global floating wind market and the US fixed offshore wind market, where we now have stateside expertise and manufacturing capability.”
